Thanks so much for the various suggestions: really useful. I have now put my music collection in the Cloud via iTunes Match and that seems to have been successful - even with albums and tracks I copied from vinyl or cassette. For some reason, there are a few albums downloaded to iTunes from CDs...

Thanks for all the comments: although I’m not familiar with many of the products, the suggestions are definitely giving my research some direction! When Rob first suggested a Sonos system + NAS drive, neither term meant anything to me but I have now spent that last hour researching them and, I...

Hi, now there are some interesting suggestions. I hadn't investigated iTunes Match because it is a subscription service - but now I see it is just £22 per year, it is definitely of interest. But what devices could I then play the music on? I have 2 iPads but the music quality is pretty poor on...
