#1 An interesting poll at TR: primary audio output.

Here.
The majority of computer users still use analog output for their PC's audio. I think the reason is because you cannot put a game's multichannel output through S/PDIF connector --unless, of course, you're using a Dolby Digital Live -capable sound card (that can decode a game's multichannel output into Dolby Digital Live in real time, like nVidia SoundStorm).
Now DDL capability is more common (like Auzentech sound cards), shall we see more and more people using S/PDIF output?
Thoughts?
