Hi,

I just checked out ports/audio/vorbis (an open standard, license and
patent free alternative to MP3). Converting some of my mp3 files and
listening to them works like a charme.

What doesn't seem to work, though, is sharing these files in
napster. At least ports/audio/gnapster only accepts mp3 files. A quick
dig into its source reveals that a patch to make it accept ogg files
too is not trivial.

Does anyone know of any napster client that is capable of handling
vorbis (.ogg) files?

        Roland
