[vorbis] Here we go again...

I'm already doing something of this sorts... albeit without a "hack".

I listen to various Internet Radio stations, and usually, I'll crack open Cool
Edit 2000 and start a recording session.  When finished, I slice up the session
file into individual tracks and either save them to MP3 (unfortunately, Cool
Edit doesn't yet support Ogg Vorbis to my knowledge) or wav format, depending on
whether I'm burning a CD or saving it to my personal music library (which
resides on a 60GB drive solely dedicated for MP3/Ogg files).

This may not be the best method of extracting audio, either via a CD or Internet
stream, but it works for me, and I'm satisfied with the end product.
