Naw.. you can buy really good portable ogg players today.. check out the
selection from iriver for example.
We should be concentrating on how to provide viable alternatives to
proprietary lockin. There are _lots_ of other options if you don't
care about open source, including other linux distributions; use
one of them if you want mp3 out of the box [1].
On the other hand if you do care, then Fedora is a nice home for you
to collaborate with others of like mind.
Cheers,

[1] Unless Eric is right and we can include an open source mp3 player
without legal troubles.
