Mod insightful. MP3 also has no DRM, tends to have lower quality at the same bitrate, and worse, even after paying up a license fee, Microsoft and other companies have recently discovered that they are still exposed to submarine patents.

So Ogg Vorbis really has no disadvantage vis-a-vis MP3, apart from not being as established in the market. Considering MPEG-4 audio (AAC) is available in both protected and unprotected variants (there are several DRM schemes, in fact -- Apple and Real use different ones), there is nothing to prevent Nokia from creating their own DRM-ed Ogg Vorbis format, if they want.
