I've just discovered (via Nokia BetaLab Audiobooks app) this highly
efficient format for optimised voice storage. I believe it is derived
from the ARM format used by phone companies for voice compression.

While I happily keep my music in FLAC it seems to make no sense to use
up unnecessary space for the many talking books I wish to store and play
via my Squeezbox.

As an example Bill Bryson's audio CDs run to over 11GB in WAV, reducing
to about 1GB using MP3 128kbps or a tiny 103MB using AWB.

As I would like to be able to maintain cross device compatibility does
anybody know if there is a plug-in which will allow this format to be
supported.
