Plans are discussed to transition to a dedicated ISDN setup using AAC codecs to improve audio quality and reduce buffering issues. One host has already installed ISDN capabilities at a property in San Francisco to facilitate this change.

While the technology allows for high-quality participation in radio shows from home, it is expensive and has led to an influx of automated telemarketing spam. One host reports that British Telecom (BT) seemingly shared his business number, leading to frequent "ISDN spam" calls.

Adam Curry notes that ISDN provides a 60-millisecond delay due to dedicated circuits, whereas Skype typically has a 600-millisecond latency. John C. Dvorak mentions his recent Comcast speed boost to 16 Mbps down and 3 Mbps up, though he notes performance drops when connecting to international servers in England.
