Apple’s Airplay is already amazing it lets your Stream audio, video & photos over Wi-Fi, but in an effort to make Airplay more convenient to use Apple will be bringing the power of Bluetooth 4.0 to Airplay. This will be a welcomed addition as it will provide a more solid connection & a higher quality of streaming without requiring to have a wi-fi. This will only work with the current hardware that supports Bluetooth 4.0(iPhone 4S, current Macbook Air, current Mac Mini)  & all future iDevices that support Bluetooth 4.0.

Apparently, while the iOS device market continues to grow rapidly, the number of AirPlay-compatible devices is not. So, Apple is making a new version of the chip embedded in iOS-device compatible products that will enable accessories to connect via Bluetooth 4.0.

At least, that is what Apple told attendees of a conference in Shenzhen, China for members of Apple’s MFi Program, according to Macotakara. MFi stands for “Made for iPhone,” “Made for iPad,” or “Made for iPod,” and is designed for officially licensed iOS device accessory makers.
