We were posed with the problem. We were using Xinet KAShare for MAcs to get files from UNIX systems (IRIX and Solaris) and SAMBA for the PCs to get their files.
We decided to ditch KAShare and just run SAMBA on all the servers. We got licenses for software from Connectix called DoubleTalk. Lets the Mac clients use smb. Now the Macs can get to UNIX boxes running SAMBA as well as the NT servers!
I know about your Tiny Tunes gig, but more recently you guys have done the music (at least the opening) for Malcom in the Middle... Did the producers ask you to do the song, or did you guys pursue the opportunity?
Although this individual is upset, he sisn't read his terms of service. PLUS, so long as the disk space is "owned" by the ISP, the ISP can do WHATEVER they want with the data on their disks (this is an unfortunate fact, which I have yet to hear anyone challenge successfully in a court of law).
Anyways, when MP3s started becoming a hot item a few years ago, I came upon MANY web-sites offering MP3 files, but with extentions like.ZIP or.3PM so that you had to rename them after dl. Most of those sites explained that their ISP didn't want the hits from MP3 dl's or streaming MP3s.
So, tell your friends that they can always just change the extention of the file name to get around matters like this.
Just my $0.02...
