What I want this device for is streaming a library of 5,000+ songs to my iPhone. Will the music apps I already have be able to access the data?

With the AirStash+ app you can stream music on the AirStash to your iPhone. (available for Android as well) It will play the songs in 1 folder on the device (not playlists). Other apps can work with the AirStash, too. You need to check to see if they have WebDAV, which is supported by the AirStash.

No you can't stream with an iPhone 6, no cables will help. It only provides music from bluetooth with the iPhone 6

Hey, I'd email their support team here- support@hirestech.com They got back with me within a few minutes. I asked the same thing about the iphone 5 because the hr II has a funky usb type. The first part of their response may be relevant to you- "There was never any intention of paring a Music Streamer II with an iPhone, our recommendation would be either the iStreamer or the microStreamer (both current models). That said, it is possible to accomplish but not an ideal solution. Here would be the signal chain of such a system: iPhone -&gt; Apple Lightning to USB A Cable -&gt; self powered USB 2.0 hub -&gt; USB A to USB B cable -&gt; Music Streamer II"

It really isn't what this device is designed to do. I'm not saying it can't be done--there are people who have modified this device to run Apache web servers and SQL databases. I know it can do some streaming of previously recorded material, but it isn't why I bought the device and I haven't tried it.

Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to answer that question. I still have space on the original device and have literally 1,000's of songs.

It's just a streamer for your storage. If your device can play .mov files, you should be fine.

Yes you can stream your iTunes music stored on your phone thru Bluetooth to the radio and the signal is fine in open water because your using Bluetooth from your phone to the radio, not a cellular connection.

If you use the pogo plug app then access and streaming music is fine . Like all data streaming over Internet speed is the main determine factor. Keep music files at a reasonable size . Streaming wav files or Apple Lossless can cause problems on slow networks. Generally I find no difficulty on my iPad Air2 or iPhone 6 plus.

yes.... you can stream any music (itunes, pandora, audiobooks, etc) that's on your iphone to your car stereo.

I would also add that if you plan to store music, if you buy all your music from Xbox Music store, then the files will sync wirelessly from the cloud. This is great if you want to have your full library on the go and use Wi-fi at other locations. This works also on your Windows Phone and Xbox One (not sure if Xbox 360 has it, but I'm sure it does).

I have to admit that I don't know. You may want to ask JVC that question or if you have that bluetooth dongle, try it out. I don't know if you would need a specific driver for that other dongle you want to use or not -ie if the one in the radio uses something generic-. I don't seem to have any problem streaming from my iPhone or iPod with the dongle that came with the radio. The quality of your streaming may be related to the server of the radio you are streaming for (more so than the bluetooth dongle). I can play some 128kbps radios without sound quality problem provided I have a good data connection. With the engine noise, I don't know how much more HiFi I would need it to be. The only issue that I have is that if you have more than one radio of that type (in multiple cars), they will all show the same ID (but you can still get to connect to each radio provided you remember if it's the first or second one on your list).

Yes I think so, if an app will work with Bluetooth speakers or headphones. I've used with iTunes streaming music. But the streaming will be only as good as your cell signal.

As far as I can tell, it seems to only work with the iPhone's music. But support for Spotify could be up to the specific app you use to display your runs.

I am wondering something similar. Can this be used to store the iTunes library to be accessed with Apple TV (then sent through the A/V receiver?)

No... It will only playback downloaded music, provided it works at all... Which it probably won't.
