>> Seriously, why rip to ogg if you're only going to listen to mp3s anyway?

i'm holding out hope that one day a player i like will support ogg.

and on my desktop/laptop i have a variety of ogg players.

if i only want to rip my cds once, i prefer to put them into a format that gives me the most options for the future. barring flac (i don't have the disk space to encode my all my cds in lossless), ogg seemed the next best "reserve" format.
