From what I remembered,
1 - It wasn't cheap.
2 - People who use multimembers tend to want to have control over the name
of the name of the member and do not want to put a column in the table
like MemberName and have that column in every row.
With DB2 MultiSystem you tell it how it should determine what member to
place the data. You may say stuff like if year of date field is 2008 then
use member 2008 or some such thing. If you are writing an invoice batch
setup then you would say put the name of the batch as a column in the
table (or field in the file) and use that to determine the member name.

Seems to me if you're going through all that, then why use members instead
of the extra column in the first place?
