Use an alias
Cleaner settings can already be shared between multiple encoding workstations. Just store your settings on a file server and replace the local Cleaner Settings folder with an alias pointing to the server (Apple's QuickTime Trailer guy mentions this at every conference session he gives). Hopefully this product allows you to remotely process compression operations among networked CPUs, and isn't just a very expensive license for three copies of cleaner and an alias.
