Roam and Music Library

With Roam I won’t always be on my WiFi thus reaching my NAS-based library will be tricky.  I could use the remote app that comes with my NAS but it’s clunky.  I would prefer to define my music library in S2 and thus reach it via 4/5G.   Is this possible?  If so, how to set up?

You might want to look into plex.tv, which would allow you to access your home media files through a plex app when on your WiFi or off, as well as through Sonos.

Why won’t Roam be able to access your music library when on WiFi, exactly like any other Sonos speaker?  Nothing I have seen so far suggests it won’t be able to.

Edit -- sorry - misread.  Are you thinking of in the garden, say, when out of wifi range?
