❍ MusicCAST client
Plays any of the songs stored in the MusicCAST server.
❍ AV receiver, speakers
Connect speakers and an amplifier or AV receiver to the MusicCAST server if you wish to listen to music stored
on its hard disk drive from the MusicCAST server directly.
❍ Internet
When song, artist, album, or genre titles are not present in its built-in Gracenote CDDB database the MusicCAST
server can use an Internet connection to download relevant information from the Gracenote CDDB online
service. We recommend that you use a broadband router to connect to the Internet. Connecting to the Internet is
not absolutely necessary, but enhances the experience of using the MusicCAST system.
