oggvorbis site has a "dare to compare" page, where they invite you to
download various .ogg files and compare them against .mp3 and wave files. I
downloaded the components that were supposed to allow me to hear one of the
samples, updating my MediaPlayer all the related programs, and I still
couldn't play it. Grrrrr!
