Both mp3 & ogg are lossy compression formats.  Especially if you're doing
low bitrates.  Taking a song that has already been somewhat mangled by mp3
and remangling it w/ ogg would be.. bad.  

I really think there aught to be a standard header flag in all of these
formats stating wheither the file was encoded from original, clean,
uncompressed input.
