Yes, I did make some mistakes, partly due to the legacy, the software was 5 years old. I described my requirement on an audio programming forum, someone recommended ogg, and Vorbis's FAQ confirmed it would be the right direction. Anyway, my first email was just a result of a bad day and frustration :-) , nothing more.
