Oh, this is wonderful. I tried to -q3 versions of all the small
.wav-files in my /usr/share/sounds (53 very short cd quality wav's) with
the following results:

3356    sounds
788     sounds.ogg
272     sounds.ogg.rehuffed

(total size for all files in kilobytes)

That's a 65% size decrease over 'uncompressed' oggs. I'm impressed.
Thanks!
