with microsoft new bitlocker program. i will like to see it integrated with home server. why. well its really easy. in case your cd / dvd is lost your home server can connect to microsoft and during low network usage times ,such as late at night, and download the software and store it on the server. this will prevent alot of piracy issuses and others . how will this help reduce piracy well for one the format at which the software can be downloaded could be in a different format than a burnable format. also installation of the software can only be done via the homeserver with a valid encryption key on both dvd and home server. this will help make life so much easier for both home users , since the cd could be launch and all the pc's in the house and isntallation will be streamed to each one. or even better yet the software should be installed on the server and then each user on the home network can connect to the server and then launch the application
just my 2 cents..
