1. sbs Squeezeboxserver must run on something/somewhere on the network. If you all wired that's not really a problem, install the software on a suitable machine.
Some NAS boxes can run sbs, check in the 3'rd party hardware forum about the DS209, I think some people do run squeezeboxserver on synology but iI don't know. In general any "server" pc or NAS should have decent spec to give you a good experience. I'd suggest something with x86 cpu and fpu unit >1 gHz 500mB Ram 1b. The Touch itself can run a "light" version of the software, but it can only handle music directly connected via the USB port or SD card slot not network shares. 1c. Hmm wonder if a symlink to an network share on the SD card would be followed ?
