[GNU/FSF Press] 'Play OGG': FSF launches free audio format campaign

I bought my little 512 MB Samsung Yepp player because it plays ogg vorbis. Mostly use it to listen to Linux podcasts which are usually in ogg. I call it my "ogg vorbis player" and not an "mp3 player".

I was recently in "The Source by Circuit City"...the folks who have taken over Radio Shack in Canada. They had a 20 GB iRiver player on sale at a very good price. Couldn't remember whether it was one of the ones that supported ogg vorbis (looked it up on the net later...turned out it wasn't). So I asked the guy in the store if it was one of the ones that supported ogg vorbis and he asked "What's ogg vorbis"?

So again I'm stumping the folks in a big box electronic store and I had to do a little educational work...afterwhich he snapped "well nobody would know that!".

So...new label at "Rat Shack" but nothing has changed :(

Think I'll stick to Samsung players...since they support me...I'll support them.
