It's easier to get a (non spyware-encumbered and legal) Ogg encoder than an MP3 encoder. It's also, of course, easier to get a media player that plays MP3s than one that plays Oggs. Lluis already put the effort into making the file, leaving you with a few choices: * Pay no attention (takes 0 minutes) * Give in and download an Ogg plugin (takes about 2 minutes) * Send a pissy e-mail telling him to re-encode his file (takes about 1 minute and bothers people) Not that I object to your choice. -- mu'o mi'e rab.spir
