whats your thoughts on the railpro setup opposed to the regular dcc setup. thanks

for the record, here is their website;

it certainly is an interesting concept.     it would be great if it caught on, or was made truly compatable with dcc.

that said, i am concerned about the use of incompatinle technology.   anybody remember beta vs vhs? beta, though a better techno;ogy, was proprietary to sony, and quickly disappeared.    my concern is that this system will also disappear, and not be supported in the future.  so i'll take a wait and see approach for now.  but if it catches on and becomes more widely available (by more than one manufacturer) i'd probably buy one.
