Dave,
It's possible that part of the picture is that in the Windows/Mac
Pro Tools area the Waves tools (and others that I don't use) that
provide much the same function as Jamin ARE plugins. (See Waves Masters
suite of tools.) Some people use this strategy, and others use tools
like Sound Forge as a post processor, like Jamin is today.
Both models are pretty common really.
Supporting your point, though, I don't know of a single tool that
operates in both modes. Sound Forge isn't a plugin and something like
the very new Waves L3 UltraMAximizer/MultiMaximizer doesn't run in
stand-alone mode.
(Wanna see a CPU hungry plugin then give the L3 a try!) ;-)
