Do it, and get a NAS

Sure, it is a pain to rip your music collection. It will take a lot of time if you care about accurate metadata. But it's something you only need to suffer through once, and the convenience is so worth it.

I recommend a NAS, and I strongly recommend it if you play your music in multiple rooms. I can't think of any good reason why you should have to manually maintain multiple copies of your music collection and manually back it up. But then again, I put everything on a NAS: music, DVDs, photos, videos, documents, email archives, etc.

I also have an Oppo 103D and I find navigating my music using its menus with the D-pad remote to be slow and clunky and missing essential features such as a playlist. If that's what you're using you can do so much better. I don't really use my Oppo for music anymore but when I did I was using the BubbleUPnP app on an tablet to control playback.
