------

The small file size is due to the use of the speech optimized codec Ogg Speex rather than MP3, and is not due to compromised quality. The drawback is limited support on mobile devices. If your device doesn't support Ogg Speex you can always reencode it to MP3. File size will increase sevenfold (assuming 128kbit) but you'll still get decent audio quality, and no gaps/jumps/spikes/other disturbances.

MPlayer and VLC should work out of the box, for Windows Media Player download the Directshow Filters from http://www.illiminable.com/ogg

Comments

Personally, I think this sounds like crap, and when coverted to various levels of MP3, it still sounds like crap, but best at 32k mono, at nearly the same file sizes.

Please post in MP3 and let the handful of people who can use Speex do their own conversions.
