Hmm, usefull, thanks.
Though neither of the first two fits my needs really, I've had 
thoughts about what I want to do, and netpipes seems to help a lot, 
combined with simple recorders and replayers...
(Basically, I'm interested in playing with a "sound system" that is 
made up of a simple tuner, soundcards, MP3  player, surround sound processor
(writing myself) and other goodies that can be easily done in software.
(such as delayed record ability, so I can tape the beginning of something
that comes on the radio, up to a few minuites later.)
