the ipod would be a lot more popular if it supported OGG Vorbis, FLAC, and WMA.
I understand not supporting real, because real stole apple's aac codec with reverse engineering.. jerks..
but if it supported those formats, it seems like it would get a lot more money, and even destroy the compitition more than it already has. there is obviously a lot of friendliness between apple and microsoft now, compared to a few years ago, and if they made a move like this, they could get a lot of surplus from microsoft. good idea? bad idea? discuss.
