All you need to remotely access your computer's iTunes library is your iPhone.

To complete this How-To you will need:

An iPhone or iPod Touch with software version 2.0 or later
A computer with iTunes 7.7 or later
A wireless network

Step 1: Get the "Remote" app

On your iPhone, download and install the "Remote" application at the iTunes App Store. It will allow you to remotely access your computer's iTunes library, which can hold a lot more than your iPhone or iPod Touch.

Step 2: Open iTunes

Open iTunes on your computer and your iPhone.

Tip: Make sure your iPhone and computer are connected to the same Wi-Fi network by checking their IP addresses under General Settings.

Step 3: Get passcode

Launch Remote on your iPhone and tap "Add Library" in settings. Your screen will display a four-digit passcode.

Step 4: Enter passcode

Back in iTunes on your computer, select your iPhone under the "Device" tab. When prompted, enter the passcode.

Tip: To access your library via the Remote app, iTunes must be open on your computer.

Step 5: Remotely control iTunes

From now on, Remote will automatically connect your iPhone or iPod touch to iTunes on your computer as long as they are both on the same Wi-Fi network. Search, play, and shuffle all the music and videos you have in your computer's library -- from anywhere in your home.

@CheatShop Because you can be in the next room and change the song or the like, as well as adjust the volume if a song is too loud, etc.
