As Andy mentioned it can actually be done, but you have to "do it by
hand". SSH into the Touch mount the network share and change the TinySBS
configuration file to point at that network drive. The Touch runs Linux
so pretty much anything you can do with linux CAN be done, but you have
to be willing to be a bit of a linux hacker to do it. The machine does
not have unlimited CPU horsepower or memory available so you have to be
careful about how much extra stuff you do on it. If you do TOO much the
basic core functionality (playing music) might suffer. 

So if you are willing to manually set things up and live with the
limitations of a remote database there is nothing stopping you from
doing so. Go for it.
