Afternoon guys,
Im a recent PC to Mac switcher and I'm just trying to catch up on the little (and not so little) differences between the two platforms.
One thing I'm struggling with is iTunes. I have all my music in one central place on a nas drive which bar backups to an external drive is where I want it to stay. I've noticed though that if I map to the share the music is on and open a song or album itunes copies the files to my macbook, something I don't really want it to do.
I'd like itunes to have a list of all my music so I don't have to browse to the share every time I want to listen to an album but I want it to stream it from the Nas rather then locally. I'm assuming this is possible but could do with some pointers, I don't really want to do too much experimenting where my music collection is concerned!
Many thanks
