Apart from arguments already mentioned, there's another: in order to write a good player replacement, we would have to have intimate knowlede of empeg hardware. Remeber the thread where guys@empeg told us about problems thay had and NDAs they had to sign in order to get anything resembling programmer's reference for DSP chip?

I am affraid we would never catch up with Cambridge guys with this. However, when they enable us to write pluggable components, that's another thing...

Cheers!
