It's very useful but on the other hand I can't afford to be connected to the internet all day to get a reasonal log of stuff from it - hence I prefer a sound card option which is why I'm interested in what you've got there now. Wacars is ok but like I said previously it needs a lot of tweaking on my setup so as not to miss something
