[QUOTE="jburnette, post: 199261, member: 24356"] Actually, it seems that ogg is a container that wraps other formats (mp3, flac, etc) so it's not necessarily lossless. Lossless means that after being encoded there is no acoustic data lost. In other words, lossless sounds better (in theory, but I can't tell the difference). I'm not 100% clear what the benefits of it are other than there are no licensing issues associated with it like with MP3. Perhaps someone else can shed some light on the benefits of Ogg? Like I said though, I've added MP3 and FLAC for those of us who need/want it. After a little more reading and some common sense I see that this rips into Ogg Vorbis, vorbis being the actual codec. The only benefit that I can see is the fact that it's open source and not copyrighted/patented. [/QUOTE]
