Dragonfly DAC

Am considering buying a Dragonfly DAC (black or red I'm not yet entirely sure). I've looked thru' other forums and Audioquest's own site but haven't seen a definitive answer to my question.

I'm gonna be connecting the DAC to my Onkyo TX-NR414 amp which I use for pure audio and home cinema. Will the DAC play & transmit anything from the computer ?? I.e. radio stations via MusicBee, AIMP etc. and audio playing on specific websites i.e. YouTube and UK specific radio station websites.

I ask this because a lot of reviews mention, Spotify, Pandora but don't say just 'everything'.

I have a desktop PC but the soundcard won't work on Windows 10. (Windows 7 is fine). I thought this might be a good solution for both Windows 7 & 10.

Thanks in anticipation.

I use them on both: 

(1) with my desktop PC to bypass the crap sound card output for my desktop stereo, and
(2) in conjunction with the APPLE camera adapter to bypass on the crap APPLE internal DAC on my iPhone for mobile stereo through headphones.
