@rags: Why leave them uneducated? Tell them about Vorbis. The user should be fully aware of what they're doing before they agree to anything.
There's an awful lot of mainstream hardware out there that understands Vorbis. Obviously if you have anything from Microsoft or Apple, they'll never respect free and open standards and you're just out of luck, MP3s for you. That's why I actively avoid defective hardware that only recognizes MP3, AAC, and WMA.
I do understand that some people may have unwittingly bought such things though, unaware, or not caring what they just did. Again with the MP3 as failback.
