I think there is a plan to add support for Ogg Vorbis to Rio Volt.
This quote was taken from a message in mp3.com hardware/portables:

"Ogg Vorbis and MP3 Pro

Mr. Lee told me they are discussing how to support these formats,
and nothing is certain at this time. The current hardware can handle
these formats, but the royalty fee is the main obstacle especially for
MP3pro, as we already guessed. We may see support for Ogg Vorbis format
earlier than that of MP3 pro format."
