Oh, it sure has changed - it's gone down the shitter. Creative's new

piece of hardware.
Lee, what's your opinion of the CREATIVE AUDIGY 2 ZS PLATINUM? A buddy
and I have been (very slowly) building a replacement for my current
SBlive PlanetCCRMA/RH9 machine. We've got all the hardware done now
and are getting ready to install PlanetCCRMA/FC5 "soon as we can find
the time"... Is this a "good move" audio quality/function wise? TIA
for your thoughts.

Yeah
it's unfortunate. Maybe the rise of these cheap knockoffs
is what drove a company like Creative, who were one of the first
to open their drivers in the mid 1990s, to their current position
of not releasing any hardware specs or Linux drivers at all.
Well truth be told, not much has changed quality wise since then;)
Ok I jest some, but I dont really find creative to be all that
great anymore myself. Not even a big fan of the EMU line;)
