Hi all!

Sorry for my stupid question, but what's the FMOD library for on Win32?
What does it better than SDL or DirectSound?

It was coded before DirectSound and for a while was the only way to
get decent audio quality on Windows. It might (or might not) work
better/faster than DSound with multiple hardware output channels.

Thanks for clarifying! :-)

Btw: Will QEMU also support <http://www.sfml-dev.org/> some day? It
claims to be *much* faster than SDL:
