besides the standard applications most can think of for this technology, i'm guessing it will be used heavily by those in academic electronic/art music circles, as well as mixed media artists.

currently, going to an academic tape music concert involves sitting in a room listening to sixteen channel pieces on sixteen channel sound systems (prett cool in itself). i can only imagine some of the stuff composers will come up with when they have 16 targeted audio beams at their disposal.
