MEDIA TRANSFER
In addition to recording directly from the CD tray, it is
also possible to transfer music and cover art images to
and from your Audio Server, using a computer on your
home network. This feature allows you to transfer music
files from your Audio Server to a portable device (for
example, an Apple® iPod®) to allow you to listen to
your music collection while you are away from home.
