Ogg Vorbis version 1.0 (encoder, player, tools, PM123 plug-in) is a general purpose audio and music encoding format, contemporary to MPEG-4's AAC and TwinVQ, the next generation beyond MPEG audio layer 3. Unlike the MPEG sponsored formats, the Vorbis CODEC specification belongs to the public domain ! From Timo Maier: "Ogg Vorbis is an audio compression format similar to MP3 but free of patented algorithms and fully open source. This is now release quality code with good sound quality and speed. On my Athlon 1200, decode speed is 45 times real time and encoding time using oggenc is around 6.5 times real time time. This means that playback uses around 2.2% CPU and a 5 minute song takes less than a minute to compress."
