I couldn't tell the difference with the new mic at all... oh well
I agree with the others, longer is better, I've never understood why you guys, Wombat especially, want to cut it off so soon. I listen to it at work, too, and the more time I spend listening to the CAGCast and the less I spend thinking about how bored I am, the better. I've been a listener since episode #1, and the longer ones are definitely the best.
That said, I would be even happier with a a copy of SOCOM for the PSP...
