Stream Apple Music (Hi Res) into NC Streamer

[toscana]

I played around with this a while ago out of curiosity but found it very inconvenient:

Apple Music HiFi Tier incoming?

I have tested a similar setup with a Naim nDAC. I.e. iPad/iPhone into a Topping D10s (used as a USB/SPDIF converter) and then into the nDAC. But I found this to be very inconvenient setup with a lot of additional cables and devices. Also, I found no way to control the setup remotely and had to do everything (e.g. selecting music, play/ pause commands) on the iPad directly. So purely based on the poor ergonomics I gave up very quickly.

There is also a photo of my setup two posts down from the above.
