File system is the wrong word. What they should have used is file format. It is not wrong that you can have a file (bits and bytes encoded in the shape described by a file format) on some remote point. If you have an index of those files where you can programmatically choose between multiple files that could even pass as a crude "file system". But I doubt this is what they meant to refer to. It is likelier they wrongly assumed a file system is the system in which a file is organized, where in fact they meant file format. | ||
