Ventrilo is the next evolutionary step of Voice over IP (VoIP) group communications software. Ventrilo is also the industry standard by which all others measure themselves as they attempt to imitate its features. By offering surround sound positioning and special sound effects on a per user, per channel, per server or global configuration level the program provides each user the option to fully customize exactly how they wish to hear sounds from other users or events. Ventrilo is best known for it's superior sound quality and minimal use of CPU resources so as not to interfere with day to day operations of the computer or during online game competitions. It is also preferred for the simple user interface that any first time computer user can very quickly learn because the most commonly used features are immediately visible and can be activated with a single click of the mouse.

3.0?!
I know right. Its been in development since at least 2002 if not sooner I think. Bleh.
This new version is OK, just not enough "new" stuff as I would have hoped. The features he added are nice, don't get me wrong, and the program still works just like it always has - but I expected a new UI at this point (doesn't have to be all shiny and sparkly you know, just something new) along with some better features than what is offered. But overall, Vent is still #1!
I heard there were issues with the sound quality. Apparently, if you say "bottle of beer" it comes out as "gottle of gear"....
