DOT.TUNES brings wifi streaming to iPhone and iPod Touch

In a recent Ask TUAW we were asked about solutions for streaming iTunes music to an iPhone and had to report that there weren't many good options out there. Now, however, DOT.TUNES has released two plugins that bring wifi (not EDGE) streaming to both the iPhone and the iPod Touch, respectively. DOT.TUNES basically turns your Mac into a web server for streaming iTunes content across your local network or across the internet. The two new plugins optimize the interface for the iPhone and the iPod Touch. With either you get access to your playlists, artists, albums, etc.

Of course any time you run your Mac as a server there are potential security concerns, but DOT.TUNES appears to be a great way to get iTunes content onto your iPhone or iPod Touch over the internet. They've even set up a demo server that will show you how it works (click here for the iPhone interface).

DOT.TUNES 4 itself is a free download, but the iPhone and iPod Touch plugins are $20 each.
