Welcome to the forums.

*1. Yes, but* to play your own music you need to have the Squeezebox
Server (SBS) software running on some computer on your network. The
options are:

*a) Run SBS on your NAS.* Many NASs do not have the requisite RAM or
CPU power to run SBS. On other NASs the operating system is so "locked
down" that it is either extremely difficult or impossible to install
SBS. Even if you get it installed on your NAS, many people find NASs
unacceptably slow for navigating the SBS web interface or scanning
music files.

*b) Run SBS on your PC.* If you do this, you can either store the music
files directly on the PC, or store them on the NAS and have SBS access
them that way.

I started out with (a), but now I use (b) and that is what I would
recommend.

*2. Yes.* And for internet radio and other services such as Rhapsody,
Pandora, Napster, etc you do not need to have SBS running on your PC or
NAS. Instead you would connect to mysqueezebox.com, which is an SBS
server on the internet.
