Vista drops DirectSound or better said, the EAX effects won't work anymore. That's why Creative Labs switches over to OpenAL. So it might become much more important in the future.
If Creative switched over to using it then I expect all of the future drivers they post that are WHQL will have this dll. I'd say this makes it worth installing. Someone should check if new vista driver downloads from Creative include this or even if Windows Update for Vista loads it.
