"By rendering sound in all directions – up, down, near, far, in-front and even behind you, 3D Audio makes it sound you are really there."

"Head-tracking will allow you to turn your head and interact with the sound environment along with the visual environment in real time."

Nice to dream.
"virtual reality audio" via headphones is much different than making software or hardware which will sound three dimensional via loudspeakers. Of course, the unanswered on their website question is "how many loudspeakers" will it take to present their version of 3D? In fact, there is nothing but marketing on their website, I spent 5 minutes on it and could find nothing technical, only marketing talk.

I have no more to add to this discussion as I've been there and done that and sincerely wish these folks luck. They will need it (and a boat load of cash) in that industry and this technological environment.
