Looking For: iTunes Movie Server, Streaming Capabilities

Posted by junger - 11/13/08 at 11:11:47 pm

I need your help.

Here's what I want to do:

• Setup a NAS or "home server"-type product to store all of my movies, maybe managed through iTunes?
• Stream them to clients throughout the house — probably Apple TVs, so podcasts can come through too
• Not use my iMac as the server

What's the best way to set this up?

I was thinking Drobo, since it can run an iTunes server – but it looks like it can only do music, not movies.

I like the idea of an Apple TV because I can watch my podcasts (at least the HD ones) on the plasma.

But, I'm open to all suggestions.

Little help?
