I made some..
  0       string          OggS            Ogg bitstream data
  >29     string          vorbis          \b, Vorbis compressed audio
  >>40    lelong          x               \b, %d Hz

  # MIME types
  0       string          OggS
  >29     string          vorbis          \baudio/x-vorbis
  >29     string          !vorbis         \bapplication/x-ogg

The mime type is a bit odd, because I didn't know how to really do it..
