Check out the flash players from iRiver. They play ogg, mp3, and wav, and with the proper firmware are accessible as a USB device. The headphones that come with them are a little bit uncomfortable, but good enough quality that I could tell the difference between ~140k ogg and ~90k ogg. (I always use VBR, so those are average rates.) They seem to have discontinued ogg support on their HD based players, so be careful that the flash player you purchase does support ogg. Also, files can be deleted and loaded from linux even with the stock firmware. -- "If there's one thing we've established over the years, it's that the vast majority of our users don't have the slightest clue what's best for them in terms of package stability." -- Gentoo Developer Ciaran McCreesh
