"Dear Apple Computer,

Many current and future Ipod owners would like to see support for Ogg Vorbis is iTunes and the Ipod.
Please consider adding support for the Ogg Vorbis Open codec, it would be a wise decision."

If you are of the same opinion, please support this petition! Thanks!

s/is/in.

If you want an iPod with OGG support, sell your iPod, and buy a Neuros. They're nifty, broadcast to FM radio without expensive add-ons, and have open source firmware.

I'd have to say the same thing. Support companies (buy hardware from them) that already do support open standards.

I never have iPod or audioplayer, but I hope that more companies support open standards

And what about flac ? There's only one player flac-enabled (rio karma).
Who cares about ipods, it's another bs from a bs company named Apple (tm of the Beatles ;))

I have the iAudio M3 40GB. It certainly rocks. It does Ogg and FLAC, the tuner is nice (record from tuner works like a charm) and it works with no extra drivers in Windows, OSX and Linux.
