There is an offer by a software developer: http://cofundos.org/project.php?id=122

There already is the dormant http://libnetmd.sourceforge.net/ that still requires a lot of work to get the specification of Sony's proprietary, encrypted and restricted NetMD-interface by reverse engineering. But if it could be done, we would have a working multi-platform alternative to Sonys disfunctional and user-restricting software. But this is not an easy task, as it requires an reverse-engineering-expert, who might need some time until everything works sufficient and it sounds like a quite frustrating job, so there has to be some financial reward. The plan "collaborately fund Open Source": many users bid money for a developer to take the task. The people who bid more money, get more influence on the development. If the jobs nears completion, the users test and give their okay: the money gets transfered to the developer. http://www.cofundos.org/project.php?id=122
