Hi, if the Flash format were to support Vorbis, that would be great.
With proper support, anyone with a web-browser and a Flash plugin
would be able to listen to quality audio.

If that's not possible, an alternative would be to implement a Vorbis
player in Flash; this would also allow anyone with a web-browser and a
Flash plugin to listen to quality audio. Anyone with a fast-enough
computer, that is.

It's true external apps can be used instead, but you can't expect
light-weight internet kiosks to have VLC, WMP, or Real Player
installed.

Cheers,
Kyungjoon Lee
