Apple Airplay
Airplay allows you to use your A/V receiver as a client for iTunes, allowing you to stream all your music from your iTunes library.
Using Airplay effectively identifies your system or receiver as a set of computer speakers, though through iTunes you can allow basic
control from the system (usually skip back/forward, play and pause). You do not get the same search functions you would get with DLNA,
but provided your iPod, iPhone or iPad is on the same network, you can control the playback of iTunes from your iOS device to your receiver.

Digital to analogue converter (DAC)
Converts the digital data signal into analogue signal that can be amplified and reproduced using speakers or headphones so that our ears can hear it.
In the case of video the data is converted into a video signal that can be reproduced by a display device so that we can see it.
Once data is converted to an analogue signal it then can degrade and lose its quality every step of the way. Most modern equipment is designed to keep data in the digital (Lossless) domain as long as possible.
In an ideal world data would be kept digital right up until the point that you see or hear it avoiding degradation.
