I find that funny, as the audio on the GoPro sucks! It is too compressed, resulting in that horrible aliasing noise like you hear on an old cheap sampling keyboard from the '80s, or a very low bitrate .mp3 or .wav file. The Contour has nice clean audio. It's a bit low, but at least it isn't overly compressed.
