Right now, All my music is in /mp3 on my synology nas. I have Itunes on my pc organize all my music.



However, I recently got a bose soundbar, and found that to play my music, it needs to be in the default /music folder on the nas to be seen and played. What is the easiest way to move my music from the /mp3 folder, to the music folder, and not mess anything up with itunes and my tags?

You'd probably do it the same way you'd relocate your itunes library anywhere else. Just go into itunes settings and change the folder that itunes stores your library in to the folder on the nas that you want it in. I think the library location is under the advanced tab in itunes preferences. Then tell itunes to consolidate your library. I think that one is under the file menu in itunes. What that will effectively do is move all the media files to the folder you chose as your new library location on the nas.
