Default OT- cheap sound cards

Say, anyone know if there's any real advantage to buying a cheap sound card over using integrated sound on the motherboard, in terms of sound quality? I'm thinking of buying one because the integrated sound doesn't have a MIDI input, and also because (if I'm not mistaken) you don't have to do any fancy config-file stuff to get multiple sounds to play at once; you just direct all output to the sound card, which handles it automatically. (It's SO annoying not being able to hear someone IM me just because I'm playing a game or something! )
