Hi and thanks to you all

I have 5 pc connected to the NAS, each with a music library pointing to
the nas
Synos and qnap have made excellent products which even a computer dumb
like me can easily configure. That includes explorer like access
facilities for your files from anywhere in world, automatic back up to
amazon s3, shot and post from my iphone and much more.
I am sure I could achieve all this on a linux box, but I am also sure
that I would never be able to do it myself (double posting above says
it all).

On the other hand,

well, that is in fact reason #1 to keep the music files in the NAS.
Thanks agillis, I will investigate subsonic or if there is a way to
automatically mirrow the mp3s to the nas (flacs can stay in the vb) 

cheers,
Stefano
