And that is indeed good news, Kevin. But can we make mp3 irrevelant by
the time the patents expire? That should be the goal. And yes, the
pro audio folks are well aware of ogg from my observations. Now we
just need to figure out a way to get that message out to Joe SixPack &
friends. We, or better yet FOSS/Vorbis, need some sort of a "new, and
improved, and better than mp3" label and logo that can readily be
identified by Joe to be used in ALL publicity.
OTOH, very few seem to understand that the lack of the Phillips owned
"compact disk digital audio" label on a cd should mean other than squat
to them. Phillips hasn't exactly spent more than pocket change to tell
the public about that.
Education, education, education.
