Vorbis - Mar 2007 - Importing cds in OGG & FLAC in itunes/OSX

Hi all ,

Just to be sure : even if we can now use XiphQT to have import/export
quicktime function on mac OSX for vorbis and theora , we still can't tell
itunes to import  a CD in Ogg vorbis , if I have understood ?

is this because itunes handle  certains things like playing streams and
encoding Cds in a non quicktime standard way ?

If I remember correctly, and my understanding is very likely out of
date at this point (iTunes has chnaged internally a few times)...

Although the QT components allowed some Ogg functionality in iTunes,
QT is indded something of a special case and iTunes's native
architecture is not QT.  At one point, we had a seperate 'native' Ogg
plugin for iTunes that did everything but streaming...

Now, could a Mac person who's been paying more attention bring my
understanding more up to date? :-)
