MP3 is just soooo much better than ogg vorbis anyways; the mp3 files are much smaller and have way better quality, ogg files have crappy sound and are way bigger.

WHAT? where did you get this bull from? A decent oggvorbis encoded at 128kbit is of same or sometimes higher quality than a mp3 encoded at 192kbit. Also oggvorbis is open source, so no licensing issues like with mp3..

Edit:
hehe.. am not not very good in sensing sarcasm over forum  ;-)

Why would you want OGG support if you cant use them to any portable mp3 players?

Why is mp3 used?? is it because of the quality? definitely not... And why is even wma used? Cause they are commercial, has nothing to do with quality... Though if more people start using ogg, i bet we will see more support later for ogg...

I encoded songs with same Kb rate, and turns out the OGG format is chunkier then mp3 itself.

So what? Does it matter if ogg are 10kB bigger when 128k ogg sounds as good as 192k mp3? ogg would still be way more smaller..
