Still a lot cheaper than the competing options.

In principal it seems like using an open standard would be the most flexible and future-proof approach, but the vendor-adoption figures you provided earlier seem to suggest that, in this case, the proprietary scheme may actually be the safer choice. If the majority of vendors are using Dante, it seems like fighting inertia to go with anything else.

I agree. I think possibly AES67 will eventually supplant it, and Audinate's offerings will move further up the stack, but that might take a while. I'd be really surprised if AVB gets much further traction outside of the industrial/embedded and automative markets. Ask me again in five years!
