If you already have a wireless or ethernet network and a computer to use as a server,
setting up Transporter and SlimServer takes just a few minutes—all you need to get your
music playing through Transporter is in this owner’s guide.
1. First, collect your digitized music into one place on your computer. You can put
all the les in a single directory, or create a series of subdirectories. The software
you use to ‘rip’ your CDs, such as iTunes, may already do this and organize your
music les by album or by artist.

computer as your music collection.
