Re: shaedia over a network?
Well, I hadn't realized that was there. It looks like, until I can get networked storage, this should work. I'll have to see how to access it on other machines, but that should be easy enough.

Re: shaedia over a network?
So does the iTunes sharing not do what you want? Go into Preferences and then Sharing. You can can choose to share your entire library. Then any machine on your network can find your library in iTunes and play stuff from it.

shaedia over a network?
Hi all, I have a mini in my room which is my personal computer, and has all my media. I'd like to share this media on the network so that the mac downstairs can play it, without having to copy and update the files to the second mac. Both use iTunes as their media player, but the downstairs mac is used by three people, each with their own apple ID, so I can't just put my library on the downstairs one with my account since I might not be the one who wants to listen. So, what is the best solution? Of course, ideally we would go buy a new router, one with NAS support, but those are kind of expensive, so what do people recommend until then? Thanks.
