What evidence do you have that Fluendo's plugin is slower or of lower quality? After all, they are a company that specializes in streaming audio and video. In the absence of benchmarking, we don't know the answer, but even if there is a quality problem, there is no legal barrier in Fluendo's way if they want to improve it.

Fluendo says: "The other drawback is that our code is probably not yet of the same end quality as mad’s." -- http://thomas.apestaart.org/log/index.php?p=333

Is that good enough for you?
