All my music (that I ripped over the years) is stored on my Synology NAS, which is part of my home network. I did this because I don't want terabytes upon terabytes on music on my iMac drive.
I am an Apple Music subscriber.
I am trying to understand how the library of music works. In the past, I had my location for my iTunes library/music files (that I manually set the path too in iTunes) to my /nas/music/ folder. That is where everything is.
I just looked in Music on my iMac (Catalina macOS) and the path is /Macintosh HD/Users/Crabby/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media
However, when I look at my library in Music, all my songs and album art are listed (as they should be).
Do I need to adjust the path of music BACK to my NAS since that is where all my music is? What I don't want is all the music files to end up on my internal hard drive.
I guess I am confused at how all my music is shown in Music (iTunes) even though the path isn't pointing to my NAS where all my music is....
