This makes an orderly media library on the Mac mini. The setup in the Music App and in Media Sharing in System Preferences is: It all starts with Apple Music on the Mac mini.
The answer is initially simple, but there were some glitches to get it just right. But playing this music at home (and on the road as well if possible) – and indeed from multiple devices – is one of the central aims of the server project. I do not want 150Gb of music on my MacBook all the time (note: I will keep some mp3s on the MacBook, but just a few thousand), and I do not want to pay for enough iCloud storage to store them all there too. I have more than 28000 mp3 files, ripped from CDs I got rid of long ago.

This is part 3 of the series about the Mac mini server.
