Nah, not really, sorry. I don't like the acronym MD as initials,
sounds like "Quincy, M.D." to me.

No, it isn't. As I just explained, NetMD and HiMD are two fundamentally
different things. NetMD is an extension to make standard MiniDiscs
accessible through USB while HiMD is a completely new MiniDisc format
which turns the media into a universal data storage format with
the music stored on the medium in a large container file.
Calling the software NetMD would be highly misleading as this suggests
that it supports NetMD only.

I actually like "MiniDisc Commander", "MiniDisc Explorer" or "MiniDisc
Manager" best so far. Those sound very professional, like the usual
utilities shipped by a manufacturer with their hardware.
