Ogg Vorbis is better quality than MP3 with smaller file sizes, and no-one
owns the copyrights to it. There are plenty of apps now which support it
( and hardware support for portable players etc. is beginning to happen ),
and conversions are easy. All round better in my opinion

Gee, I've never before had to ask twice!! After three weeks of (sometimes
fuming) opinions about ATRAC vs MP3 and nobody has any opinions about Ogg
Vorbis digital compression???
Doug, am I still connected here, or what? ;^)
This is purported to be "where open source meets the
web-music-copyright-abuse controversy" . .
