If even teuf blogs now ...

My good friend Christophe Fergeau a.k.a teuf has finally decided to blog about the technical bits he is moving around my music player of choice, Rhythmbox. I hope he'll also move his **ss to talk about what he is cooking on the libgpod library as well. I won't buy an ipod anytime soon and using a player that doesn't support the Ogg format is a no-go to me; but still, spending so much time trying to reverse engineer how to talk with those devices has always seemed amazing to me. I do respect that.

No pressure teuf :-)

Well, putting rockbox on it, the iPod IS capable of playing ogg vorbis. Though you won't need any special lib any more then ;-)

Hanno: yes, that's right. Kudos to the rockbox folks by the way. They do rock.

But still, I'd rather give my money to companies who do the effort to support open and patent unemcumbered formats in the first place.

That's what I call "voting with money".
