I think the trick might be to _not_ sell it as a "Real replacement". Vorbis is just another one of the multitude of codecs which the Real software, both server side and client side, supports. Hopefully it could be treated as an implementation detail which doesn't require wholesale changes to the software setup at either end. -- dwmw2 - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
