Please check the individual music service’s Web site for more information.)

2.Select the Sonos-compatible music service you would like to add.

3.Select I already have an account. Type your music service user name and password, and then touch OK. Your user name and password will be verified with the music service.

Music folders

The Sonos system can play music from any computer or network-attached storage (NAS) device on your home network where you have shared music folders.

•To add a new music folder to Sonos, select Manage Music Library -> Music Library Setup -> Add New Share on a handheld controller.

•To remove a music folder, select Manage Music Library -> Music Library Setup. Touch the share you wish to remove and then select Remove Share.
