Paul did not point out that it was better to use a tool that implements a
patent-free algorithm. He merely made the usual "use Vorbis!"

Hmm. Then I guess I screwed up when I bought the Sony USB NS-11 MP3
Player (512 MB). I tried to play an OGG file on the device, but no
joy.
Does anyone know of hardware ogg players (usb) that I can buy?
Problem solved! I changed the apt-ftparchive command to
apt-ftparchive packages . | gzip > Packages.gz
and executed the command from within the directory containing the
debs.

Thanks to BMG Music, all MP3 encoders are non-free. Try a
patent-unencumbered format like Ogg Vorbis instead.

Averatec? I have the Averatec 3120V, and it was slightly tricky to install
