And these are facilities you'll now use?

Take me through how convenient it would be to play a CD on your computer
and pick that up on the Hi-Fi? Or indeed radio?

Glossing over the whole CD != TV thing for a moment, the obvious
solution is you rip the CD to your network storage device, and then play
or stream that at the point of use. For older Hi-Fis without streaming
capability, something like a Chromecast Audio will add a capability in a
very easy to use form. A radio might be a less useful device for CD
playing - but if it has an Aux in connection, then the same solution
will work.
