Ogg Vorbis decoding is _almost_ as fast as mp3 decoding, already.  And
it will
be faster, soon.  Working on it...
(datapoint:  mpg123: 38x realtime.  vorbis: 30x realtime).

His idea was not playing Vorbis in a game; rather, he wants to use his
PSX as a kind of mp3man.  Should be very easy to program, if you know how
to program a playstation, that is.
