<p>Yes, on Mac OS X,  ITunes is the most used but Audion is used too.

I am a beginner with Vorbis Ogg because I work on it since 5 days only, but
in one day I included the Ogg Vorbis import/export in my programs, and
they are now shipped.

So I think it is a big plus for Ogg Vorbis : it is very easy to integrate
even if the application is complex.
(The only minor bad point, is the name of some headers which can be
different to avoid conflicts, for example by using vorbiscodec.h instead
of codec.h)

Recently the biggest Radio in my Country : "Radio France" had switched to
.ogg format :
<http://www.radiofrance.fr/services/aide/difflive.php#ogg>

at this date there is no streaming program which can read this on Mac OS
X, and this is a very bad point because the end user don't try to
understand if it is a .ogg problem or not. 
The end user see that yesterday he can listen using MP3 stream and now he
can't listen.

Best regards
