I am over BlueBeat

Well another early adopter technology goes into the recycle bin. Time to reclaim those bits on the harddrive. BlueBeat is out. I LOVE listening to 320K lossless audio streams commercial free. But the hooks that are required to support the X1 decoder (to make sure you don't attach an audio encoder or other copy device) makes me have to disable too many things. The spyware, virus and firewall programs complain about X1 running at such a low level in the stack. When you can get the same genre streams over at Shoutcast at 128 mp3 without any security issues, the hassle for the higher bitrate is not worth it.
