That's a good idea, but I don't think MythMusic supports DAAP...

 You would have to set it up so that the ipod would show up as a
 directory under the music directory when attached. Then you would have
 to scan the device with mythmusic. After all that, you can play.

A better route might be to play your iTunes database over the LAN, if you have it on another computer. I don't know if Myth has such a feature, but Xbox Media Center lets me stream my iTunes music by connecting to the iTunes DAAP share.
