GNU, GPL, Open Source Today I'm going to talk about why software - any software, all software - actually matters, what the different types of software are, and why you should care about its properties (no matter who you are, or what you do).

Re: Good reasoning that will fall on deaf ears

Just to clearify: FLAC is half the size of a WAV file, but the lossless audio remains. ;)

Agreed, Ogg Vorbis is a truly great format. Too bad it's taking so much time to develop (many reasons for that, read the xiph mailinglist) the next version.

If you guys want an MP3 player that also supports Ogg Vorbis, check out iRiver and Rio. Rio also supports FLAC.
