Various Sound Backend - Why?

[Junayeed Ahnaf Nirjhor]

Hello,

This one is general Linux question. Up until Fedora 15, there was xine 
and then there was gstreamer (Which contains good,bad & ugly) . Then 
there was fluendo. Except xine, the later ones still exist.

I mean, they all are sound backend / codec, right? Then why having many 
of them?
