The recent growth of home networking applications has raised the requirement for cable-free distribution of an increasing amount of media to portable playback devices, which lack the resources for local storage. In this work, the "BlueBox" wireless digital jukebox application is presented, which employs the Bluetooih wireless technology for distributing on demand, high-quality compressed audio, originally stored in a Bluetooth-enabled digital jukebox to remote portable client devices. It is shown that despite the strict throughput limitations imposed by the early-defined Bluetooth protocols, the BlueBox application setup can efficiently accommodate cable-free, high-quality audio distribution over an adequate number of receivers for home environments.
