also, just like oss, is just a collection of drivers for sound cards.
esd does something more.  now in fairness considering that ncd and others
had already made similar systems i don't understand why esd had to be
written as well, but regardless esd does for sound cards what x does
for video cards.

i could care less what the sound cards are driven by, just that they
get managed by something that's aware of a network.
