Truthfully I have no real concern with this. 1/16 represents less than 2/100ths of a percent. This is hard for me to get excited about. I'm sure it has to do with priorities in encoding data for maximum throughput with the least amount of data content compromise. I trust they will solve this. Communications infrastructure bandwidth is a hot commodity. I'll be the first to say we will all be hearing claims of how one service is better than another because of some "apples to oranges" comparisons having technical explainations and jargon beyond most unable to understand communications terms such as "bit error rates", "information bandwidth", "data bandwidth", "coding gain", EDAC, etc. and how each of these play a role in what is an optimal compromise for volumus data delivery over a finite bandwith resource. As long as the information is reliable and reasonably accurate, I have no concern with the 1/16. At 5$ though, yes! but I see no problem there. Just my opinion. How do you like the newswire features? This seems to be completely missing from the "bandwidth" or "packets" of all the other competitors currently. Regards, JP
