. . . 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.

You may be an Apple bigot but the bottom line if one is going to go the computer audio route an Apple platform is the best way to go. It is far more stable, less fiddly than any PC alternative.
People buy Apple for one primary reason: it works. This quality is critical for computer audio and that simple cannot be said for PC/Microsoft based systems.
Best advise I got when starting down the computer audio path was go Apple you will not regret it. And I have not. Almost 4 years of basically trouble free operation.
