Comment 1 for bug 57089

This plugin is extremely useful when setting ALSA up for high-quality playback. Such playback might be required by audio professionals, home studio users and those interested in using their computer as a HiFi source. The default resampling algorithm in ALSA 1.0.x is optimised for speed and does not offer sufficient quality for many PC sound applications.

Including this plugin in the Ubuntu libasound2-plugins package would make it much easier for Ubuntu users to extract maximum sound quality from their PCs.
