Updating the music index
The Sonos system indexes your local music library so you can view your music collection by categories (such as artists,
albums, composers, genres, or tracks). During setup, all of your available music folders are indexed for easy selection. If you
add new music, simply update your music index to add this music to your local music library.

Imported playlists (M3U, WPL and PLS support)
The Sonos system is compatible with iTunes playlists (including Genius Mixes) as well as M3U, WPL and PLS playlist files
created with third-party software (for example, iTunes, WinAmp, Windows Media Player, and so on). The Sonos system does
not change music or playlist files created by other applications; these files are always treated as "read-only."
To play music from imported playlists, drop the playlist file .PLS, .M3U or .WPL into the same music folder you have shared to
the Sonos system, update your music index, and the custom playlists will appear when you select
SONOS music menu, and then select Music Library -> Imported Playlists.
iTunes support
You can view your iTunes playlists in the Sonos system by selecting
touching Music Library -> Imported Playlists.
