I am a lead programmer at a major game company 
(Maxis) and Vorbis is potentially very important 
to us. I am pushing to make it the default streaming 
sound format (e.g. non-sound effects) for all 
future titles. This assumes that it works as well
as anticipated. Other subdivisions of Electronic
Arts are looking at it as well. The day Vorbis
is ready with a decent level of first-cut 
optimization is the day I start incorporating it
into our apps, with SimCity 4000 being the first.
