D2B - MOST comparison / differences
What does MOST offer over D2B that caused MB to switch? Cheaper royalties? Cheaper to manufacture components? Performance boost? New function? More device support?
Anyone know?

-Faster speed (probably not necessary...yet)
-Longer ring length
-Smaller bend radius
-Some people just can’t stand having older technology so they’ll buy a new car
But the main reason is that it is an open standard instead of proprietary (D2B); the economies of scale can kick in and push the price of components (like CD changers) down.

Just found this technical info so I thought I would share for those interested:
What is MOST?
• The MOST acronym is derived from the words:
“Media Oriented System Transport”
• An evolution of the fiber optic ring and electrical wake-up
configuration used in the D2B system
• A communication standard created by DCAG, Becker, and other
corporations (unlike D2B that was exclusive to MB)

But at least EVERYONE is adopting MOST which means more hardware and more choices.
