Ogg is already of better quality and compression than mp3
at 44.1 kH 16bit stereo. Main problems are enormous CPU usage,
and lack of implementation for other-freqs/mono/!=16 bit.

Ogg will surely go better and better every month.
And mp4 isn't real yet. When it will be out, ogg will
be probably already far superior.
