This would allow to use closed-source apps that just support old-style OSS and don't work (correctly) over wrappers (some browser plugins, VMWare and others). In addition it could be used to get rid of sound-daemons, using dmix plugin and routing non-alsa apps through that virtual-pcm driver! Use: same as for virtualmidi, but for PCMs!
