Earlier today while listening to CBC radio's national science show "Quirks and Quarks", I was pleasantly surprised to hear that their audio archives are now offered in Ogg, in addition to mp3 and real. This is the first CBC show that I am aware of that offers their archives in formats other than the usual real/wma/qt. For those who don't know, CBC is Canada's only national public radio and TV network. Quirks is heard weekly on Radio One (which quite litterally blankets every corner of the country) and on shortwave via Radio Canada International. db --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'vorbis-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

I just listened to some of their oggs and i have to say that they sound like those listening comprehensions we have to do when writing english exams. so they might be interesting for all people learning english and interestet in science.
