[Kde-games-devel] To ogg or not to ogg?

Hi guys,

Up till now KGoldrunner sound-files have all been .wav, however
I just added a file that had been accidentally omitted and I notice
the files are getting rather large.  For example:

    Falling sound 1.325Mb
    Game over sound 1.141Mb
    Victory sound 1.166Mb

The other 7 sounds are all less than 0.2Mb each.

Should I convert the larger sounds to OGG?  Should I convert all
the sounds to OGG?  What are the pros and cons?  Are there any
portability problems?  Any ideas ...

All the best, Ian W.
