→Audio codecs
===Vorbis===
===Vorbis===
'''Vorbis''', commonly known as Ogg Vorbis, due to the common use of [[Ogg]] as a containment wrapper for Vorbis, is an [[open source|open-source]] audio compression codec which is capable of delivering greater audio quality at a lower file size than does [[MP3]]. Vorbis is also free of the aggressive copyright policy that MP3 is licensed under, which forces software writers to pay a fee to be able to legally write and distribute software that is capable of encoding audio as MP3.
