The Ayre is a streamer and comes with a network card built in which will take streamed services and turn them into digital signals its DAC can process. You do need to subscribe to the services and use a mobile app to direct the streamed services

Sounds like that is what you want. And the simplest setup

The N10 also will stream services using a network card (redundant unless you feel the N10 does a better job) and the N10 adds a proprietary app that manages you ripped files and services. The N10 would deliver a digital signal directly to the Ayre. It has an Easy to use and intuitive app but i believe the UPnP based server technology is becoming outdated and will over time move to services like Roon which I find sounds better and it combines all data together
