I turn my nose up at any psychoaustic scheme, especially now I have the remixed 7.1 surround Super-Audio CD version of 4'33... blows your mind, you can hear a pin drop! Especially with my new $20k speakers.

Which came first, the Avian, or the OGG? (Insert obligatory Chicken Run reference...)
Now that it's an RFC...

"OGG is better" "what? We're talking about music, not whatever that is..." "OGG is about music. It's a file format, like MP3s, only better." "Okay, dude, I'm sorry, I just keep missing the first thing you're saying" "It's OGG. O - G - G." "Dude, that is the most retarded name I've ever heard of... let's play some halo on my x-boxe!!!"

Until I read more about it years ago, the name OGG always made me picture some wanna be Mac Addict listening to Mod files or something in a dark room prodding through OS7 while dreaming how elite he had become.

To continue the recently-created Slashdot tradition of replying to posts at random:
I agree! "Wilford" is a funny name!

"Compact Disc is better" "what? We're talking about music, not whatever that is..." "Compact Disc is about music. It's a format, like records or tapes, only better." "Okay, dude, I'm sorry, I just keep missing the first thing you're saying" "It's a Compact Disc, a Cee Dee." "Dude, that is the most retarded name I've ever heard of... let's play some Techmo Bowl on my Nintendo!!!"
Yes, that's what RFC stands for. Slashdot took over the commenting aspect of all RFCs, so please just post any comments you might have about RFC 3533 below.
How about this?

"...for all you folks who won't look at something unless it has an RFC attached to it."
I can imagine Logic taking four long seconds to come up with something that sounded smart at the time. Here are some more gems that Logic has come up with:
"John Carmack reached 50,000 ft. with his X-Prize entry today, for those of you who don't take video games seriously unless their designer is a rocket scientist."
"NASA today announced proof of a black hole in a nearby galaxy, for those of you who won't watch Star Trek episodes with unproven singularities."
"Sun finally implemented generics in Java in its latest release, for those of you who only view web pages with applets written in languages with generics."
I refuse to support Ogg until its streaming component adequately supports the Evil Bit. Slashdot has given this so-called "Evil Bit" RFC a little lip service in the past, but I think it's high time we brought it out into the open.

a) It sounds better
"Ogg" sounds better than "mp3"? Are you kidding? I mean, "mp3" isn't a great name, but at least you don't feel like a cornball when you say "I've got 20 gigs of mp3s." Who really wants to brag about how many oggs they have??
Slashdot Mirror
RFC 3533 over RFC 1149! (perfect for those multi-year John Cage tunes)

"what? We're talking about music, not whatever that is..."
"OGG is about music. It's a file format, like MP3s, only better."

Dear RFC,

Sincerely,

and hope they don't think that's a pokiemon.
You can't judge a book by the way it wears its hair.
"The Ogg Encapsulation Format Version 0"
Version 0?? I've heard of version 0.1, but never version 0. Does this mean it hasn't been started yet?
