First of all, you can play ogg files on iTunes; see

http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/xiph-qu/xiph-qt-0.1.8.dmg
Read the file enclosed with the component for installation instructions.
and download the xiph-qt (quicktime ocmonents). It says Quicktime but your

ogg files will play in iTunes.

Secondly, you can get flip4mac (quicktime components for the Mac for Windows Media) and Windows Media player 9 for Mac at
www.microsoft.com/downloads
Use the "mac and other platforms" link and then you'll find the links for both of these applications. The quicktime components is the current application but I still also find I sometimes need Windows Media player. You want the Windows Media Player that says it's a .bin file but the extention when you download it will actually be .sitx. If you do install Windows Media Player, you will need Stuffit Expander on your system to decompress the file. I believe there is a link to the website for stuffit expander on the Microsoft download page for Windows Media Player, but don't go and buy anything; the free version will do fine.

Another player I really like is vlc from www.videolan.org which plays lots of diferent file types.
