It certainly is outside the realm of FreeBSD's traditional ISP and
home markets (funny to talk about "traditional" on such a young BSD),
but I would imagine research and industrial environments would benefit
from such a beast. How is our support for tape libraries, tape
robots, CD jukeboxes? Joerg's recent work with the CD-ROM burner
would no doubt figure prominently in an HSM application. :)
