I called Creative about the Live and got the run around. When I became frustrated I started pushing a bit harder. This is unofficial, but I never heard back from them, so I will speak what I was told. Creative bought out Emu.
The Live has an Emu chip as it's main component. One of the reasons at the point of my call (in late Sept I think) that no driver info was released was because Emu was still patenting parts of the chip. The person at Emu I heard this from suspected that info might be available once the patents were filed.
I hope this provides some useful background to whoever will contact Creative. Please note, I would give the name of the person I talked to, but I do not have permission, and they probably aren't the place you need to end up at.

P.S. Tech support is not the place to call, they have NO info and might not have functioning brains.
