While SC is open source, I can't see a manufacturer using it without a
licensing deal - they would want to partner up to get some guarantee of
compatibility long-term.  It certainly makes sense to me - let them do
the audio and let SD take a cut of each sale, providing a robust
streaming system.  Everyone wins!
