I don't think mp3 is the only format that works, just the most popular.  I have 
code for a game I found that uses ogg files too, and I'm pretty sure I've seen 
wav files as well.  I've of course never gone and looked up the appropriate 
sections on the w3c, but if you were interested, it shouldn't be hard to locate 
at w3schools.org
I've personally tested mp3 and ogg files myself, but having never tested wav 
files or any other format, I can't say with certainty which formats work.
