Making Music Selections

Use the Music Library pane to select the music you wish to play. You can select from
any of the following music sources:

• Library (shared folders on your network)

• Sonos Playlists (music queues you have saved for future play)

• Internet radio

• Line-In (external audio component such as a portable music player)

Managing your music library

Your music library can include digital music located anywhere on your home network
such as:

• shared folders on your computer

• shared folders on another computer in your network

• network-attached storage (NAS) devices

The Sonos Digital Music System does not change music or playlist files created by other
applications; these files are always treated as “read-only”.

The Music Queue

As you make music selections, they are added to a list of tracks called a music queue.
You can create a different music queue for each zone in your house, or you can create a
zone group and play the same music across multiple zones. A play indicator appears to
the left of the track currently playing in the music queue. When the current track ends,
the next track in the queue starts to play, and play continues down through the list
until the queue is completed. When you add tracks to a queue, they are placed at the
end of the queue.

Note: The music you select will play in the zone or zone group that is highlighted
in the Zones pane.
