If you only use it as a remote disk each of the computers you connect to it will have their own iTunes library and playlists.
Another point is to have fun doing it !!!

Can someone explain? I’m thinking of buying an nslu2 for this specific purpose. But I thought I could just dumpy my music onto it and access it from any computer straight out of the box?! Why do I need itunes to do it? Can’t I just go to the network drive, double-click on a playlist and listen to tunes?

Those people miss the point of the hack!
I have a new unit, firmware V2.3R29. Has this version of firmware been hacked yet? If so, where can I find the links? I don’t want NFS, but the iTunes server, telnet and more control would be great!
Thanks for the sharing of info!

I appreciate the hack, but it doesn’t interest me.

Seems like it would be a nice, uh, security tool.

I have not installed this hardware yet, but my assumption was that I could simply specify the remote USB drive as the default iTunes folder for each of my (3) home pc’s utilizing iTunes.

If this is indeed the case, I do not understand the benefit of this hack. Will somebody please elaborate?

Thanks!

Not to mention that you posted twice.

As someone with an 80 GB music library that likes to create one set of playlists and keep it all nicely organized and centralized for every computer, with a consistent interface and easy accessibility, I for one appreciate this hack. mt-daapd rocks and any device I can install it on frees up my options.

Thanks for the link, hackaday.
