You have no proof of this yet have stated it several times. NTEK has explained how they accomplish streaming at a lower bitrate and it has been posted here many times. Until you can prove your statement you should at least post your message with the note that it is your opinion. Many people here own the NP-1 and attest to the quality of the stream. Do you own an NP-1?
