I can't believe it, what has happend to ogg vorbis support in IT2006.
Nokia more or less promised it (said they don't have enough time to do

There already is a Vorbis player as an add-on package. Now, it looks like this does NOT add a Vorbis codec to GStreamer, so you don't get the advantage of playing Vorbis "natively", but the code to play Vorbis in Ogg streams exists.

But yes, I too would like to see Vorbis, Speex, and Theora in the GStreamer stack natively.

Also, while we are at it, I saw that there is a company that has Windows Media Player files in the GStreamer stack. While I hate the fact that we need these codecs, the simple truth is that as long as WebMasters continue to use WMA/WMV for web content we will need these codecs - perhaps a Non-Free package, with the appropriate blackmail^Wlicense paid to Microsoft by Nokia would be in order.
