It may be a bit late for this, but MusicIP can import your music library
from iTunes rather than using the files themselves.

You should then be able to fingerprint the music collection on one
computer, then move the MusicIP cache file to the NAS, and it should
still work provided the file paths are the same for both.

As you have come across, MusicIP on the Mac uses PPC code to read and
write tags on AAC and ALAC files.  On Snow Leopard, you can install the
Rosetta software that will allow MusicIP to read & write AAC/ALAC tags
but Rosetta isn't supported on Lion.

Importing the music from iTunes means that MusicIP doesn't need to read
the tags.  

However you can't write the fingerprint information to the tags, and
the fingerprints need to be stored in the MusicIP cache file.  This
means the music will need to be re-fingerprinted if the file path
changes.

Personally I don't store the MusicIP fingerprints in the tags.  Years
ago, an earlier version of MusicIP corrupted tab information when
storing fingerprints, so I never trusted it from then!
