    QNAP today released a major update to the NAS management software embedded in their Turbo NAS products as firmware. The new V3.3 update provides many new features and enhancements for consumer and business users of both current and legacy Turbo NAS server models, helping users maximize their investment in a QNAP NAS by extending new features to owners completely free of charge.

Multimedia Station 2 is a comprehensive music, picture, and video management and player application that allow web-based management, playback and sharing of your music, videos and pictures. Music lovers can build their own playlists, organize by artist, song, album, and genre and playback their favorite music from anywhere they have Internet access. Pictures can be showcased with stunning Cooliris 3D walls. Users can create slideshows and set the background music, even email pictures to friends & family and publish pictures to popular social networking sites including Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, Blogger, and others;
    * New! Support for QMobile app (compatible with OS3 & latest iOS4) for iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch users, allows music, photos, and videos stored on QNAP Turbo NAS servers to be remotely streamed and played directly on the Apple devices anywhere there is access to a WiFi or 3G network, eliminating the need to store the content physically on the device;
    * New! Firmware Live Update feature allows QNAP Turbo NAS servers to automatically check for and download new NAS management software updates;
    * New! ISO Mount feature allows mounting/accessing of archived CD/DVD/Blu-ray Disc ISO images instead of burning a physical disc;

    * Also New! System Migration, allowing easier migration of data when NAS are upgraded, and new Network UPS support;
    * Enhanced! Easier monitoring and management of existing Apple Time Machine backups;
    * Enhanced! Resource Monitor has been enhanced to provide more detailed information for network administrators on CPU usage, bandwidth statistics, disk space, and more.

    Is the playlist a proprietary format?

    I don't much care for iTunes, but it's widely accepted. Does it act as iTunes server?

    thanks,
    PCRoger.
