Anyhow, this definitly looks like more competition to the
AudioRequest people.
And it looks like
their BBS already has a lengthy thread on the subject. AudioRequest should have learned from empeg and tried a bit harder to go the OEM solution provider route. Seems to have worked out well for empeg.
(Oh, and any chance of enabling HTML support on this BBS like the empeg one?)
