I'm not understanding why specifically OGG/Thora (because it's free? Still, why?). As long as anything can play it, that should be the aim, hmm?

When last I checked, the XviD codec (AVI) was free and open source.
The XviD codec is very much patent encumbered. No free mpeg4 codec can exist in the near future. The situation for XviD is actually much worse than MP3. mpeg4 codec licensing is a huge expensive mess. Fortunately Theora has competitive quality/bitrate with mpeg4. _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@Wikipedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
