This brings an interesting question: The touch is a server and a player. It would seem there would be two data sets: 1 on the touch and 1 on the vortexbox. It should be necessary to "change" servers (libraries/remote libraries) to access each separate server. Is this true or can the touch merge with another server and be seamless (as we would hope?) I think a "list" of music locations would be the only solution. I'm pretty sure this isn't explicit in iTunes but I really don't see a lot of complexity in having a <finite> list of music locations coupled with an "include other servers" option. (YES, I know they could be duplicating songs and etc. but read on.) After a scan, each location would be included. If a <portable/detachable> device is not available at playback, a simple, single "select" parameter in the UI would be required. Other than that, if the media is not available a message could either suggest a restart or give dialog that the "tune ain't there just now..."
