Will Do, the NAS is just the first step, all of my CD's are being ripped to Apple lossless and initially I will be getting an Apple airport express to stream everything to my set-up in the front room to give my music collection more ease of access (I am finding that I am listening to my newer CD's and almost never get the old stuff out). Apple Genius Mix should also help rectify this.
I will no doupt do some back to listening Apple v CD as source. If I am happy with the way the system performs I will upgrade to an apple TV in the front room and move the express to the dining room.
