[ubuntu-us-ut] MP3 player advice

[Benjamin Cardon]

I have yet to find an MP3 Player that supports OGG out of the box. I found
one a few months ago that could be hacked to support it, but I can't
remember the details of that. It's unfortunate, becvause I'd prefer to have
all my music in OGG on an MP3 player (for the quality->size) but there
doesn't seem to be anything out there that can accomodate that. Does anyone
know of any MP3 players that work with OGG?
