For disk/flash players at least this is something that could be implemented on alternative player firmware - you could ask if, say, Rockbox have any plans to implement it.<br><br><a href="http://www.rockbox.org/">http://www.rockbox.org/

<br>but, still none of the ogg player stated, they support replaygain tags..<br>that is the whole key to all.<br><br>replaygain should be the industry standard, to be used on mp3 ogg flac.. hey<br>even wav / pcm files.<br>
