    Probably is FireFly, the same iTunes service running on ReadyNAS. It allows a shared library to appear in iTunes (running on a computer) but not is a standalone iTunes server.

    The "iTunes Server" installed on the Synology and many other brands of NAS is not what you want it to be. It will show up in iTunes as a "Shared Library", but it is not the same as having a computer running iTunes with Home Sharing - meaning that you can't use it to serve your library to an AppleTV for example. You still need a computer running iTunes to do home sharing; the NAS can't take the place of that always on device.
