There's a solid book about this called "Crossing The Chasm".

It is about how to solve many hurdles of bringing a technical product
like the Vorbis format from the technophiles to the widespread audience.

IMHO it is worth reading, especially because people like us really do need
the widespread audience-- to get hardware makers like Rio to adopt Vorbis.

Have people here read it? What do you think?

Cheers,

Joel
