Anybody Know What A ".ogg" File Is?

[IHATEFAKEFILES]

I know is a music file, but what do I do with it?

I've tryed to play it with quicktime, windows media player (and that crashed my computer) and several of my audio software wont read this like acid pro and Audition.
Im stumped. I'd love some help

Ogg is Ogg Vorbis, a highly compressed music file that requires a special player. This format is not popular, only with computer geeks. Fire up kazaa and search for some mp3s. B)

um..Winamp supports it (get 2.81). Best audio player there is

ogg can actually achieve higher bitrates with a smaller resulting file size.
The only reason I don't encode to ogg is because it's not the consumer standard.
There are very few portable/component devices that support Ogg Vorbis.

oh well...still, it's a very good format (and open license, unlike mp3)

As much as i love the idea of a loss-less format that's relatively small, i just cant imagine coverting all my mp3s. would take days.
