Self-correcting error transimission up to and including resending one or more incorrect packets may be less than optimal efficiency but I don't recall getting anything via FTP or whatever that was corrupt as a result of the transmission, and without getting an error message. AFA security, there are several secure transmission options if you don't want to send information in the clear, and the buzz about encryption kinda indicates this being addressed on a large scale. Private networks aren't all-that either, anyway, so what's the alternative: hand delivery by a assumed trustworthy Brinks employee?

And so what to all of that anyway. Digital audio data can be kicked, droped and stepped on all day without having much if any effect on the quality of the reproduction to the ear. It's no surprise portable music CDs have been taking unthinkable abuse for a decade or more and they still keep ticking. It's time sensitive, not data sensitive information.

And who cares about that anyway? The issue was non-realtime VOICE and that loses the only drawback: time sensitivity. So I think IP is going to be HUGE and ignoring it is just plain STUPID.
