"This versitility was key because I really don't want to mess with servers as the only way to play digital sources. I have worked in IT for close to 40 years and I just don't want to mess with that stuff at home."
Ah, what you need my friend is a Mac music server. Set it and forget it. No virus scans, no blue screen of death, no bloatware cluttering your screen and bogging down the system, and significantly less frequent patches and annoying security updates from the mother ship MS.
Mac is UNIX based and rock solid. I too have worked in IT for many years and finally made the switch to Mac only 5 years ago after a long history of pain and frustration from the days of DOS through Windows 7.
Putting on my flame retardant suit awaiting my dowsing of gasoline from Apple haters. ;-)
Congrats on the new CD player! A computer based music server takes it to the next level making it even more convenient to access all your tunes with comparable audio quality. Modern DACs are pretty decent these days.
