Hmm, I think I was having the same problem as Tim. It was giving me some funky credentials error. Your link works though.

Thanks, flan!

Umm, what's OpenAL?

I just googled it and from what I understand it's a way to better hear the direction of certain sounds. Like when you're being shot at from behind....

It's a open source audio API, much like OpenGL.
