Quoth the article: "Supported multimedia formats include MPEG4, MP3, WMA, WAV, ASF, AVI, and JPEG."

WTF? A Linux-based media player that DOESN'T support Ogg Vorbis out-of-the-box??

From a business point of view, it makes sense. Ogg Vorbis is being somewhat slow to catch on.

But, you can probably hack it and add that capability. ;-)
