Where I live (SF Bay Area), the FM spectrum has been full since 1968, so there's potentially interference on any channel I select on the iRock transmitter (88.1/88.3/88.5/88.7). This can be mitigated by playing with the orientation of the transmitter antenna (the flexible connector). If your FM radio has an adjustable antenna, adjusting its position also helps. Some people report that unhooking the antenna on their home stereos reduces the interference from outside transmitters.
I recently used the iRock with a small boombox for a small class where there was an open musical discussion. I had examples for almost everything that came up in conversation in iTunes (though it wasn't as impressive as in the heyday of Napster). There was some distortion at peak modulation, though I couldn't say where in the chain the distortion originated. Overall, iRock + boombox was more effective than the PB speakers would have been, and it was a great deal less effort than hauling in an AC-powered sound system.
