Could somebody explain the point of using a sound card in a Mediator? The card won't work for any software which uses Paula, which presumably leaves only AHI enabled apps (i.e. not games). Also, a sound card will give little or no improvement in performance of MP3 decoding. So what's the point?

But how many apps would actually use it? Surely only AHI enabled apps? Wouldn't software that is hard coded to use Paula ignore the Mediator entirely and still use Paula?
