A good webcam, in my opinion, is a device that provides a decent sound quality (from the article).

Ehm, sure about that metric? Should a webcam not primarily offer good video? And why not having good audio by means of an external microphone in addition to a decent camera?

If that's the primary metric, the rest of the article is flawed.

IMHO the best setup has a dedicated camera and at least one dedicated microphone (Most people streaming use microphones or headsets, don't they? Same for radio-show/podcast hosts.).

Doesn't mean that a webcam can't have a decent microphone, but if you are going the custom route...



Anyone not using headphones is going to have echoing and feedback anyway. May as well just use a headset.
