Jack:

Saw your posting below on the pho list.

Proteron now has a nicely working Ogg audio encoder with a high-quality 
interface on the Mac in N2MP3 Pro.

Please spread the word among vorbis folks that we're looking for beta 
testers.

Works well for me in combination with player Unsanity Echo.

Although N2MP3 will cost around $60 retail, the ogg part is free for all.

Best Regards,
