Re: [gNewSense-users] More on the mp3 issue

[rek2 GNU/Linux LO LO LO]

How long for mp3 to end the patent? I mean is  like 10 years? if so it 
should be near..
in my personal opinion, as long there is Ogg, I can care less about mp3, 
if someone gives me a mp3 and my system can't play it, I just
convert it to Ogg format, this brings me with one idea, whatever we do I 
will support  but if we decide  to not include mp3 support, then
we should make a script were that users can use to convert to Ogg all 
their media.
