Guys... I think it's important to know that Rob, Hugo, and the Empeg guys are ALL Sonic Blue employees. So saying "Rob, you don't need to prop up SB" is disingenuous... He gets a paycheck from them, so he's sure not going to bash them on a public forum. This BBS has no official connection to the former Empeg entity nor to Sonic Blue, but he still can't belittle his employers.

And I don't think the Empeg guys would do so. They have actually shown some displeasure at some of the order fulfillment woes, but it's never bordered on bashing the company. I wouldn't expect any Sonic Blue bashing, and in this instance, it seems the Empeg team agrees with the direction, though they might be a bit disappointed in the commercial failure of the Empeg.
