"ergo MicroOS,,, ''[0018] In the present invention, a predetermined file format can be used to store the digital media content. The predetermined file format can be configured to be incompatible with the file formats used by major computer operating systems, such as Windows, Linux, Unix, and Apple's operating system.''

They have the ability to implement the attributes of any higher level OS......without having to necessitate their respective structures....or as specked above ...offset completely.

This is very important because it allows portability across the entire industry, that aside, there are controller(firmware) I/O issues combined with this ability that are as equally important.

e.Digital needs to cover the controller issues first (I/O), because, would be infringers can implement a less sophisticated file format structure.....while utilizing a similar I/O.

They need to nail them on direct file read/write from nonvolatile memory entities (be it removable or static) through similar caching sequences.

If they get this, we are winners, the rest IMO, (tier 2) will fall like dominions.
