Theres always a niche market, just that ppl who enjoy sound have to pay a bit more, I myself used to built-in sound for a couple years, recently i *found* an old SB Live lying in my storeroom, plug it into my new rig and whoa, it really sounds much better...

Whatever you guys said, sound card is here to stay.

This proves (at least to me) that a great speaker is useless without a great sound card, and my friend agrees with me, he said that my speaker sound so much better even though the RM400+ price gap

True enough, just because its not flourishing doesn't mean its sure death for the SC. Creative still wants to have market presence, just that probably the advancements will not be so great compared to other components.

If you're itching to spend a hundred bucks (i am hehe) grab a Chaintech AV710 soundacrd from daijobu's bulk... the sound is pretty good for stereo (not 5.1) as it uses HT24 chip...
