Hurrah for Ogg Vorbis! Hurrah for Auntie!

I'm listening to a music station recommended by zotz, on an open source, non-patent-burdened music format, hurrah!

From the voice, it could be Elvis Costello, but maybe that's because purplerabbits has been playing a lot of that recently...

So is Radio 6 worth downloading and faffing to listen to?

Glad you like it. They are, incidentally, playing Costello quite often at the moment, because he's got a new album out. Quite a good one, according to the reviews.

You don't want to know the hard time I had trying to parse OGG tag information
without libvorbis.

It should be a simple job, but my "solution" is incredably hacky, and makes
me feel unclean... ;)
