I admit, getting the cover art can be dicey

. . . especially for obscure recordings. In some case, I've had to resort to making up my own covers. ;-) (Actually though, I could scan the covers myself if I couldn't find them by any other means.)

However, this happens maybe 1%-2% of the time. Mostly, getting the metadata (including the album covers) is a well-tried routine for me, and it really doesn't take that long.

You can reduce your need for backups by using a RAID drive as your primary storage device. Yes, you will still need to make backups every so often - but a lot of this activity can proceed unattended however.

I also appreciate how it might be harder for those with a vinyl library to make the move.

Although I've been an Apple bigot since the mid-80's, I don't see why one would need to use an Apple device just to see one's library - maybe I'm missing something?

Regarding ethernet cabling, mine just runs along the wall-floor boards - not underneath.
