From Footnote 1:
[...] If we were to use the full dynamic range of 24bit and a listener had the equipment to reproduce it all, there is a fair chance, depending on age and general health, that the listener would die instantly. The most fit would probably just go into coma for a few weeks and wake up totally deaf.

Great points. Earlier today I read an AP story before seeing this (now COB Friday). While I have not gone through the posts at TC, the AP story appeared to have checked/ covered/ summarized both sides http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=990515
Interesting Arrington said neither has rights to the product. Just pointing out from an independent AP source instead of TC.
Arrington: [CruchPad] paying a lot of bills... $400,000...
Rathakrishnan: CrunchPad did not contribute code or funding... never agreement on terms of an acquisition... neither funding nor buyout were materializing...
Arrington, November 30, posted on TechCrunch that Fusion Garage and its investors had suddenly decided to dump the CrunchPad team... neither side owned rights to the product.
Rathakrishnan on Monday refuted Arrington story and introduced JooJoo.
Arrington filed suit to block sales of Fusion Garage JooJoo.

Fortunately, your search tool doesn't need to be written in the same language your project is.
That being said, performance comparisons would be interesting. Not necessarily from a "which is better" standpoint, but from a "what can these projects borrow from each other", assuming it's not a straight port.
