I have been staring into empeg's display with dev 1.0 and disk icon on, trying to see when the disk is up, and I am quite impressed. Most of the time the player 'anticipates' my skips and swaps and already has beginning of the next track cached. The whole affair's memory footprint is incredibly small: with dev software and visuals active, the thing plays more than 4MB before the next spin-up.

I am beginning to understand why Hugo and the boys consider the player software their company's primary asset and don't (yet) even contemplate open-sourcing it.

Good work, guys@empeg! I hope you have already earned a lot from your OEM projects and will continue so.

Cheers!
