ReadyNAS NV, iTunes and Apple TV2
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to host my iTunes library on my ReadyNAS and stream movies and music to my Apple TV? What I want to do, is access all my tracks and movies without having my Macs...

No - not possible. You are constrained in having the NV and not a newer x86 NAS that would enable options that might be acceptable. But even then you would probably need to jailbreak your ATV as otherwise it is inextricably linked to iTunes when it comes to video streaming.
Maybe consider investing in a mac mini - even 2nd hand - that you could tuck away next to your NAS and dedicate to itunes & managing your media, such that your NAS is then a pure storage device
