Secondly I think we since we aren't working on a mediaplayer of any kind I think we shouldn't be supporting a gazillion number of different codecs. Just one for each type of media is IMO better, unless there would be a very compelling reason to do otherwise. And at this moment I don't see any such reason. And that "most people have MP3 files" might be true, that however doesn't mean we should support that. People can always use a mediaplayer alongside WZ to play their music when encoded in different codecs from that which we support. -- Giel
