Re: [-empyre-] commerce compatability and web 3d

Hi, anyoneone up to spec with MPEG4 3d? Tho I've mainly checked out the interactive audio side to me it seems like an ideal solution with VR, media streaming and interactivity, e-commerce and variety of kitchen sinks... a while back it there was talk on merging X3D and mpeg...  its not really a viable platform until Quicktime 6 and the like are released, tho looking at the amount of mpeg3 playing systems, one could imagine your broadband content accessable via 3rd generation handhelds, home entertainment systems (playstation, x-box?), destops, etc.

I just hope the licencing issues are resolved so that we don't have to pay a streaming tax...
Any thoughts on this?

cheers,
Damien
