Watch any video from your Mac/PC via Air Video

Air Video is an app for streaming videos to your iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch without transferring your videos to the device. In addition, if the videos in your collection are not in format supported by iPhone, Air Video can convert them on fly (live conversion) or offline (entire file).
First of all, you need to install Air Video server and app on both your Mac/PC and iOS device. The server software is free to download while the app costs $2.99 in App Store. Once the server is running, add folders that you want to share. If you have videos in your iTunes playlists, you can also share those playlists.
