  1. Cool but I need network audio access by cjsnell · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    [Sorry for the tangentially off-topic message here but it's somewhat related so I will post anyway...]

    I just got a Sony Clie PEG-SJ20 tonight from my father. I would like to play OGG/mp3 on it but I'm unable to locate an 802.11 card for my handheld. Until I can come up with fast wireless access, music playback on this device is kind of pointless. I need to be able to access more than a handful of songs for this to work. Do any of you have one of these Clie things and if so, have you worked out wireless TCP/IP for it yet?

  2. Quik Question... Kinda OT, but who cares =/ by Alpha_Nerd · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    My music collection is about 50/50 mp3 and ogg... I want to convert them all to ogg.

    Will the reencoding degrade the quality?? I'd think as long as I keep them the same bitrate it would be the same... But couldn't there be a slight loss ??

    heh, thanks =/

    You can mark me offtopic. I accidentally selected Underrated for a particular comment that was obscene. I am posting this to delete all moderations in this article.

    Take it easy and may Ogg Vorbis supersede MP3!
