Because to me, those four pages are a waste of spce in the mag. If it was on
the CD, something that interested me could have been given more space, or even
another feature, review, whatever.

Sure, I realise you can't please everyone and I don't expect you too. But to
me it seems strange to give more space to something which IMO should be on the
CD (for people who actually use it), than a review.

it's own upside down socket over Gayle already.

Sure, maybe on that particular AVI codec CyberAVI doesn't support sound, but
when the mag reads "...CyberAVI is a bit slow and doesn't support sound." to
me that equates to "CyberAVI has no sound support", instead of "CyberAVI
doesn't support the sound in this AVI".

Not when it's the author of the speaking clock. ;)
Sorry, missed a smiley there. :(
