Intel supposes to replace your headphone jack with USB Type-C

Samsung Galaxy 4 is so bad on sound, I found a speaker that used the audio jack.
Using bluetooth and watching a baseball game chew up the battery really fast. If you are watching 4K video, you might have a battery problem. Someone needs to get more efficient.

The other disadvantage, some car audio systems. Ours is geared to other half's flip phone for phone calls. If I have bluetooth enabled on my phone, the system in the car wants that phone and ignores the flip. The first choice in the car system is Audio, from any source, then phone. The flip has only one ringtone that qualifies as audio (mp3 and cut) Maybe newer models have addressed this. This car is a 2013.

That's quite a few current devices that will have to be accounted for.

Glad to know it wasn't just me. I have a bluetooth speaker but if I want to use it for Internet radio I have to cable it.
Thanks for the tip on the phone. We haven't attached a phone to our truck yet.

Folks, you're always going to have a Digital/Analog converter somewhere in the mix. Sound is analog pressure waves.

The question is, who is going to pay for it? One converter in the computer, or one in each output device.

Pick. . .
