[vorbis] TwinVQ versus The World

The last few threads have really been interesting.  Technologies 
that are currently on the market are MP3, RealAudio, and Windows 
Media (pre-version8).  Technologies currently in progress or 
just shipped are Ogg Vorbis and mp3pro.  I don't think anyone 
has mentioned TwinVQ on this list.  While exploring alternatives 
to MP3 (which is when I also found Vorbis), I noticed TwinVQ.  I 
encoded a few tracks with TwinVQ and they sounded like shit, but 
does anyone still consider TwinVQ a serious competitor in the 
compressed audio market?  Does it have _any_ advantages over 
anything else?  How about AAC?

Thanks for everyone's reply ahead of time.
