Both the Icon and the Victor Reader are devices specificly meant for
VI persons. I was speaking of use both in and outside the VI world.
Plugins are available, but why bother when MP3 is so much more
convenient and compatible? I just don't see any advantage over MP3
or AAC. And, the biggest problem for me personally is that they are
not supported on the iPod. If they work for you, that's great. My
only point was that there are many reasons why one would not want to
use them.

Josh, they play on the victor reader stream and the icon. It's
simple to put the plugin on the computer to play them there. They
are small and high quality.

I've converted mp3 to ogg using audacity but not the other way

provide the ability to play them with a quicktime plug in.
It's been my experience that most people do not have the ability to
play these files without mucking about. If I want to send someone
an audio file, I'm going to send them an MP3, not an OGG file.
Personally, OGG is far more trouble than it is worth, and they
won't play on iPods or many other, probably most other, MP3
players. There are a ton of reasons for ditching ogg when you have
a file in that format.
