I read:
I think their point is another one: There are few companies that
used firewire with all it's potential. RME is thinking they are
the only ones, that uses all the potential in firewire. If the make
a ALSA solution, their competitors have the same basis (that they
think of is the best one) ...
And since firewire is a very generic protocol they may be right :-((
Is this true, that a firewire driver for one card can be used with
equal power for another card?

for the record, i sent a mail to rme as well and
got exactly the same
answer (in german) which i saw before here on this list.
I still don't see the point, the GPL _protects_ their IP rights, if I
was the evil corporation trying to rip off rme I could aswell rip the
thing apart and reverse engineer the code and the protocol, might still
be cheaper than doing the r&d work.
