There's a lot of ways to do it, but I don't personally see the
benefit. Speed is the obvious one, but anyone concerned about speed
can use Glen Bredon's ProCache to cancel out most of the performance
problems.

20kb/s is actually not too bad on an Apple II, and without the 'seek'
delays that go with rotational media a good solid 20kb/s ought to be
achievable.
