Sonos & NAS & Software

[mad-dawg]

Advice please
I have a NAS with most of my music on (about 160gb) which I play through a Sonos system, does anybody have a recommendation for some software that I can use to rip/organise the music on the NAS so I can keep track of what I have or have not ripped and making sure all the same artist tracks are together etc?
Sonos is pretty good at finding stuff but doesnt allow album track names to be edited.
Software must be PC not Mac as I detest Itunes because it forces you to use pre-defined ways of doing things.

Thanks

Mediamonkey may be what you are looking for. Personally I gave up with the NAS route and stream/ download from Napster through the Sonos. I go for the £10 a month option so I can download to phone/iPad to play away from home offline.

I would second GSWiss on this Mad Dawg, time you spend messing around with NAS systems and keeping it all backed up drove me mad. I went for Spotify on Sonos and pay £9,95 per month and download what ever I want to my iPhone/iPad and Computer. I just love this system, can't recommend it enough.

Ta for the suggestions. Unfortunately I'm from Yorkshire and can't bring myself to part with 120 quid a year to listen to stuff I probably already own.
If anyone else is tight like me then get dbpoweramp, it's about 40 quid but does secure ripping in a lossless format (take your pick) gets all the metadata sorted and allows export in any format you can mention.
Probably does loads of other stuff as well
