I ask that we don't favour (or even use) ogg vorbis (FYI, "ogg" is a container
format, "vorbis" is the audio format codec). I'm going to completely ignore
any arguments that could be made for or against the idea that it is patent free
or infringes on patents, and I'll instead look to the fact that Apple and
others have decided that it's iffy and not worth the risk & hence there is no
native built-in decoder available in iOS (iPhone/iPad/iPod touch) for it.
Hence, for it to work nicely in PocketSword without me having to include my own
sound decoder, I'd prefer mp3 or aac.
Thanks, ybic
