Where to download oggs

Now I have recently noticed the popularity with oggs here. I am trying to find the best place to download them , and best tool for downloading them. I find low amounts on kazaa but I did find a server with a lot where I just downloaded them from there. Thanx for any info

i don't think there's any real "place" to get them, just gtk-gnutella, and setting the search file types to ogg instead of avi, mp3 etc...

What is a ogg?

how about you look it up on google, instead of just expecting someone else to explain it?

Thanx acid.

It's like a mp3 but they are a better quality. check out

www.vorbis.com for more info and downloads. I personally just heard about them and I like them a lot. I am in the process of ripping all my cds and convertig them to .ogg.

Ogg is a free alternativ to mp3, which is a licensed technology.

When I go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/gift/
it says they have no files to download is there another place you would reommend? I checked google but I got a million Differant GIFT Ideas.

There isn´t any binaries yet, you have to get the cvs version. It´s pretty easy just follow their install guide carefully.
