Pioneer announced their first AirPlay compatible receiver, the VXS-1021 today. It does what you probably think it does – it let’s you stream music from your iOS device to the receiver as if it were an Airport Express.

Here’s where it gets interesting though. The Pioneer will put the album art and music information on your screen (Via HDMI out?). If they can do that, why can’t you stream video to this bad boy?

The VSX-1021 also offers other connectivity choices:

* Bluetooth Ready with Pioneer AirJam App
* Home Network DLNA 1.5 Certified and Internet Radio with vTuner
* Pioneer iControlAV2 App
* HDMI 1.4a 3-D Ready with Audio Return Channel
* Apple Airplay / iPad / iPhone Certified

(yeah the $549 receiver is already in our cart at Amazon)

Pioneer also updated their other iOS products, below:
