Nobody took this news to this list!?

Microsoft was ruled to pay about a billion for infringing

a mp3 patent. When that is verified in higher courts, it

is expected that many companies will face the same issue.

I hope the bill for individual Windows users is high enough

so that OGG starts sounding a good idea.


Also, now it would be time to contact all possible mp3

manufacturers, and tell about OGG encoders and players.
