NSFW Reddit!
A few hours ago I was searching for a way to share my music itunes library with some friends. After trying some different options I think I found the best one. Hamachi allows you to share your iTunes library with a few mouse clicks (and only with people you know so it won’t destroy your bandwidth).
The requirements:
- iTunes (http://www.apple.com/itunes/)
- Hamachi (http://www.hamachi.cc/)
Preperation:
1. Install and open Hamachi.
2. After following the brief on screen tutorial and create a new network by clicking on the bottom-middle button.
The guide:
1. Open iTunes and Click Edit>Preferences>Sharing.
2. Click the ‘Share my music’ checkbox.
3. Now give the name of your network along with the passowrd to someone you know, let him join your network and start iTunes. If he or she also follows the previous two steps (not the netwrk creation) you will also be able to listen to his/her music!
Troubleshooting
Q: I cannot see any shared music?
A: Two solutions:
1. restart iTunes (simple, isn’t it?)
2. In iTunes click Edit>Preferences>Sharing and click the ‘Look for shared music’ checkbox
