Yes, I agree with you. I assume not many C++Builder users write multimedia
applications (audio, video) or sometimes post in other sections of the
groups and/or don't have many  questions to ask on this topic ;-).

The last post I see is for 10/16/2002 which is almost a month ago and only 2
new topics.  I remember sometime ago (was about (July this year)this
newsgroup wasn't even listed on Borland's site. I use Outlook so I just
listed all the newsgroup in this domain that way, not many newbies know that
.
