The technology -and- paradigm shift in music IP are both some considerable way away. I'd be quite surprised to see either within the next 2 to 3 years.

We specialise in developing state of the art consumer music systems, and when new technology comes along, we'll be working with it. Nobody knows for sure what our products are going to do in 2-3 years (although we have some ideas!) but we're certainly not going to stand still.

This new media (which is one of any number of such projects that I've seen reported over the last 10 years or so) is still going to need some software to do anything useful, and that's where we come in! You'd be surprised how many mainstream audio products will be running empeg software over the next 6 to 12 months, and many of these already break away from the car player storage philosophy.

Of course this shouldn't stop anyone from buying a car player, unless you want your music needs to go unfulfilled for the next few years!
