On this point I add that I hate both formats because of the lossy nature. I rip CD's to flac and then convert as required for my mp3 player which does support ogg. My wife cannot notice the difference, even with good headphones on and I cringe at most mp3 music. My biggest problem is "Stairway to Heaven" I have yet to get a good ogg or mp3 version of this song. Same with many live recordings.
Yes, Stairway and the Battle of Evermore I had to rerip at 320 bps to get rid of an echo in both songs. The rest of my collection is 256, with a few exceptions. I don't really like live recordings, so I haven't tried those. If you're already ripping to flac, are you listening to them as flac? I know that mplayer will play flacs.
