.ogg in iTunes

Filed under: — midtoad @ 21:56:52 MDT

I received a new iPod Mini for a birthday present. Thx bro’! Good little player, except for one thing - half my 100 GB music collection is in .ogg file format, and Apple iTunes doesn’t do .ogg files. But, I found a way around this problem.

After a good bit of research, I found this site with a couple of downloadable .exe files (presently virus-free; I checked). Running them enabled me to play .ogg files in iTunes, and also in Windows Media Player.

I’m happy again!

Another little utility that’s quite handy: a plug-in for Winamp that allows it to download music to an iPod. This way, you can avoid altogether the massive size of iTunes. If you’re not interested in buying music from Apple, you don’t need iTunes.
