In the Config settings, you will see Ogg encoding as a default in the 
mp3 tab.

Grip does a lot (including play mp3 tracks) but I have been able to get 
the best rips which using ripperx, and although its around the same 
size (Grip = 211kb, ripperx=208kb) its GUI is quite clear, 
though "clunky".  Maybe its my old age (and bad sight) but I find the 
ripperx GUI easier to read.

At the heart of my request is to have more KDE (or at least non-Gnome) 
applications available when I just run the Live CD or DVD.  Sometimes I 
just want to fire up Kubuntu on a little-used PC and have these - or 
other applications - available.  Now if Gutsy were to have an 
application which allowed me to add extra applications to the .iso and 
take those out which I little use, then that would be OK.

I haven't seen any indication of such an application, hence my request.
