Thoughts on 3 music server implementations (aurender, sonare, ps audio), help please

Also curious why you think the Aurender is the least future proof as it seems quite flexible?

I agree with Firedog. Monolithic, locked in solutions will be going the way of the dodo.

 

Think Digital Equipment Corp. It was excellent high end equipment in its time...

very interesting...people w/o serious aurender experience make hasty judgements re future perspectives of aurenders R&D plans

 

Companies facing technical obsolescence have a number of options available to them, including 1) biting the bullet and going with the new paradigm, treating some past development as sunk cost, 2) partially going with the new tech and hoping that is enough, 3) handwaving about future R&D and circling the wagons. There are other approaches too. If DEC had embraced PCs way back when they might still be around today.
