Location: NJ | anyone know how to do this?
I use nero express but it does not seem to recognize the ogg format.
does anyone know a quick easy way to do this?
I have a ton of stuff in ogg that I just downloaded from a website
another alternative would be if you have any of the brian jonestown massacre cd's you can burn me a copy of zip me some mp3's
just got into this band after watch the movie Dig on the sundance channel |

EDIT: Sorry, Al...
Mac has WhambPlayer which plays OGG, so I'm guessing you are already at the url posted above and found the files in OGG.... |

Location: Hicksville, NY | Pardon my ignorance for I don't know anything about OGG files, except that it generates the highest sound quality and they're smaller than MP3s - or is it?? Speaking to a handful of my friends in the local area -- most of whom are tech savvy -- OGG files seems to be all the rage. They speak so highly of it that they make MP3, WAV, and WMA files sound like garbage. |

| Don't convert! Get a program that can play both. Winamp can play oggs.
Ogg Vorbis is a better compression method with smaller files, and is free and open!
Also, if you convert from one lossy format to another, you lose information. For instance:
[code]Say MP3's cut out this |-xx-x-x-------xx-x-xx|
and OGG's cut out this |xxxx------------xxxxx|
Then you're left with |xxxxxxx-------xxxxxxx|
Where x's are stuff they cut out for smaller file sizes.[/code]That's just a strange, crude example, but it makes the point. |

Location: NJ | the ideas is to burn these to cd's and throw them in the truck to give them a listen.
sound quality lost would only be second to the rattle of the crap in the bed of the pickup and what is sitting in the passenger side of the truck. |

Have you checked the Nero site to see the available plugins? |

Nero Audio Plugins
This will add about 10 of the most common audio formats into Nero for you. Great program that I use. It is freeware and they ask for a donation if you decide you like it and use it.
Good luck |
