Also no one is pointing out the fact that the custom sounds feature is spread across 4 servers with huge specs, and not _everyone_ uses custom sounds.
Already pointed out by Menthix, Jesus and me though.
(yeah I know, I said I was going to sleep, sorry. But I thought of something I needed to rectify asap in some other post. And one thing lead to the other, etc... why don't I PM this? blah, who knows nn)

A alternative is that as you may know there is a new feature in WLM called "Keep Me Signed In". It asks you for a location. If the selected location is available and online, it transfers the settings from THAT computer to the computer you just signed on (No cost at all on Plus!/Patchou's side and would just cost the bandwidth on the clients side)
That would indeed be a nice alternative.
But if this is made as a script, you might as well make a script which simply uses your own server or FTP location to store all of the settings.
The problem is that "common users" don't have a server or a FTP location. Also, if done with a script, this means that other users which simply download Plus! wont get this feature.
And yup I agree with this being a Windows Live Messenger 9 feature only (once it is fully out of beta) and using the "Keep Me Signed In" feature. This way:
1: Each account has a location associated with it thus no privacy concerns.
2: It can do a P2P transfer of the settings.
