Bass is nice but it will only cause more no *nix support issues. OpenAL is great and compact. It is also recently included in the iPhone SDK. I wish Adobe would just include the compact OpenGL as well, which the new iPhone SDK is also using. That is full platform support and some cross pollination there. I dont' do enough with sound but I would bet on open. Down with OpenAL. Bass is nice but it will only cause more no *nix support issues. OpenAL is great and compact.

The problem with this one is it is very expensive (currently per license). I did find a while later OpenAL (http://www.openal.org/) which was almost the same as what BASS did (to my understanding) but free (alas I'd already spent my onerous amounts of money). I think OpenAL is quite small as well, and looks to do a lot of what BASS does. I'd be happy with BASS though if Adobe was willing to buy them out (or get some massive license dealio). OpenAL is LGPL as well so I think that means you can put it in non-LGPL software. I’ve used BASS through the BASS Xtra (yeah, Director) and found it to be amazingly stable as well.
