This isn't naughty and you don't even need a jailbroken iTouch or iPhone for that. In the most simple case the "naughty application that can pull mp3 files from his home media server" would be Safari.

In the most simple case the "naughty application that can pull >mp3 files from his home media server" would be Safari. Not as described - without jailbroken mods, Safari on an iPhoneOS device won't download and save files, though it will stream if they're presented suitably. dTunes plays local files.

Ah - I have a bit of a blind spot for priced Cydia apps, it's just that bit too much effort.

Well, I'd love to know so if you do go for it, please do post! Cheers - Jaimie -- There he saw Merry's feet still sticking out - the rest had already been drawn further inside.
