Winamp
What about Winamp? It plays .ogg, it should be here.

Translations
This page needs to be translated and the extension modified to direct people to the page in the language of the wiki referencing it.alnokta

slightly confusing
The first time I looked at the page wanting to get XiphQT, I clicked on the download for Apple QuickTime (which I already have). Maybe there is a way of making it slightly more obvious for the not so up to speed users, that it's not only Apple QuickTime that you need, but that you also need to download XiphQT itself. --88.217.9.23 18:46, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Still confusing
I came here from wikipedia when I tried to play the 2 second ogg video at Roundhay_Garden_Scene from Firefox 3, and I saw this page has a link to http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ and the text "Open source media player and browser plugin." However the page at VLC does not mention any plugin. I already have and use VLC, but an older version of 0.86f. Could more detailed explanation be given. I am downloading the new VLC version in any case, but I do not think that will change how Firefox behaves. -78.14.224.48 15:06, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, maybe the text is not so confusing. I first uninstalled the old VLC 0.86f, and then downloaded the latest VLC version 0.9.4. After closing all browsers, I started the VLC install and noticed a checkbox for "Mozilla plugin", so I clicked it to enable it. After installation, I find Firefox can now play ogg files with a choice of players: Cortado (Java), QuickTime, and Browser plugin. Firefox "about:plugins" now lists VLC Multimedia Plug-in. So all is well again! -78.14.224.48 15:48, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Where are the previous codecs?
When trying to listen to an Ogg Vorbis file through the website, when you followed the link to set the software up on a computer, there used to be a Windows Media codec and one that mentioned Winamp. Instead, there's just some Java thing, some seperate player and the intrusive system hog from Apple. Banaticus 07:59, 28 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Agreed. Where is the easiest-solution for 95% of the world's computer users?  Wikipedia's anti-MS agenda has no bounds.  Why the hell would installing Firefox be a valid solution when a WM codec would be simplest?

Suggestions
Not able to edit this page, since it is locked. I suggest adding links to the Xiph.org Directshow Filters, for Windows XP and Windows Vista visitors. Also, let's suggest a more lightweight multimedia player, in addition to the patented-codec-heavy VLC player.

Which Linux fatbeard dreamed this one up?
Ogg files? Seriously? Why wouldn't wikipedia favor usability over some fatbeards desire to push his favorite, unused, geek format?


 * Wikipedia is a hive of type-A know-it-alls, as a result, whatever minority choice they make is defended with zeal.
