I feel the good outweighs the bad in this situation. When something new is developed there's always the potential for misuse, but if we dwell only on that and not the good uses to which it could be put, we'd never get anywhere. As for sounds, they crop up in multiple audio games all the time. Like it or not, sound effects aren't easy to come by when you're a blind guy with not a whole lot of money, especially good quality ones. As for showcasing the games, you can always zip them and Email them to people. And I think the AGM web site's going to host some.
