Where to store my ITunes Library?

Hi,

I was wondering how i find out where my ITunes Library is stored? and if it's possible to move it? All my MP3's are stored on a NAS drive on my home network. can i then point other systems at that library?

Thanks

Open the Advanced section of the iTunes preferences and find the music folder's location.

if it's possible to move it?

Click here and follow the instructions, or drag the iTunes folder in the Music item of the Finder's sidebar to the NAS followed by launching iTunes with the Option key held down and pointing it there.

can i then point other systems at that library?

Yes. Note that moving only the Music folder will require that the music be reimported on the other computers each time more music is added.
