[CoLoCo] Converting from Ogg to MP3

[Dave Vanderploeg]

Honestly, Rockbox loses too many features that the iPod has (cover art is a
big one). I bought an iPod because I like the way it works and looks. I
tried RB, and it had some really cool stuff, but it still wasn't as easy /
clean as the basic iPod. Maybe I'm just hating on open source today.

OGG to MP3 loss should be minimal, as long as you match bitrates. I'd keep
both files, don't ditch your originals.
