With an in-game player, dont forget that it will also encourage the _Users_ 
to use their own oggs<vorbis> as well. This is 'one more person' using oggs 
for a reason other than just "Because they should." (: All these users will 
likely care about is "how to make and use oggs for use with UT 2003."

I know after playing one net FPS for long enough, I :had: to create my own score.
I currently use a software ogg player, but that leaves me unable to control it 
while playing. If I use a stream, it can even crap out durning heavy game use.
