this is what i heard from other forums, i could like to know if OGG is better than MP3 in sound quality, i might want to try OGG in good sound system
/quote /b i choose OGG as it is easy to setup and the file sizes are very small while still keeping the quality of the original. /b /quote

OGG sucks. First off, it's a pain in the ass to find any way to convert OGG to MP3. Nothing plays OGG, and most people never even heard of OGG.
OGG is a compressed sound file that takes up less space than an MP3 without loosing quality in the sound (I think). It's only purpose is to save space. I have like 30 OGG songs from last year that I haven't bothered to convert because it's time consuming.

Wrong.
Winamp can play them, dbpoweramp can convert them, and they're better quality. So in short, yes, they are better

I dont think so, I think ogg plays at 64 or 48 kbps - I used to have loads of ogg files cause I wanted to save space. The sound quality is better on mp3's.

eh?
So they were encoded at 64/48. Well in that case, of course the sound quality isn't going to be any good, because they're encoded at a low bitrate. Encode them at 192 or something like that

OGG is open so ther are loads of (open source) programs out there which can handle OGG and convert it from/to other formats! and besides OGG has better quality when it comes to the sound too

If you can find a program that controls the bitrate of ogg files, please do inform me, because to my knowledge there arent any programs that control the bitrate at which you convert.
