I don't know if LanyFS will it ever make, and to be honest there are
some corporations _not_ interested in its success, but if it makes it,
this process might be less painful in the future. At least I have to
try, and if we have a better solution in a few years, I'd be happy to
drop the idea and go back to watching my movies again.

However, I watch this thread and I take all the answers and mails into
consideration. You are the experts, and I appreciate you take the time
to discuss the general problem of compatibility and LanyFS in
particular.

I don't want to go to deep into the network vs. removable storage
discussion, although it is an interesting one. For some reason this
issue made a lot of noise, and I have to concentrate on replying to
various mails and modifying a lot of code eventually.

Thanks all of you for your comments.

Regards
Dan
