There seem as many opinions about this as there are on audio forums about whether 24-bit audio files are worth having for music.
I've been using SMB shares forever to access media on my desktop with devices connected to my TV/stereo only because I thought it was the only way. As I've gotten more and more into building my raspberry pi 2 running OSMC, I find people professing their love for NFS, claiming it's more reliable, faster, "better" whatever that ever means, and I need to know because searching online is pointless in this area. What's NFS as compared to SMB, is it more suited to my media center needs and does anyone have any info on exactly what is done to connect an NFS share because that seems to be something everyone skips over in their NFS vs SMB wars. Thanks!
