What I really want is... iPod support!

Tell me about it, it's not like Apple aren't fans of Open Source either.. hopefully just a matter of time.

i dunno about ogg in itunes hacks. i tried one from i think macaddict, and it slowed down my itunes to beach balling for about 5 minutes.

It's not a hack, just a codec, the same as DivX or any other decoder. It is quite slow though.

oh! i though you also did the iTunes hack to get the ogg icon in the finder and itunes be the default payer for it from mac addict.
my mistake.

Mac Addict made a good point about Apple having a OGG File icon.

They also have had a WMA icon for a while. I still hope they add OGG support. Not for me, but so they can sell more iPods

why?

Call me naive, but who really uses ogg vorbis files? Are we talking about .001% of online music?
