Things have come to my attention on other forums.
There seems to be a lack of knowledgde out there,
about lossy compression and encoding.
So I'm asking this:

Please don't take your mp3's and reencode them to ogg,
since both are lossy compression formats.
Doing this will only result in a decreased loss of quality...period.

If you want to create and share ogg files,
rip them again from CD to ogg.

Let's do this right, and make all the ogg files we share,
the highest quality they can be.

Thanks.

and when you encode them, please use the 1.0 encoder. RC3 was decent but 1.0 is awesome.
