I know both Celt & Opus are better codecs, but is it feasible to
perhaps add a Vorbis codec as a further option. It is a widely
available codec which has been bitstream compatible for ages, and
I'd hope it would be better than falling back to raw PCM ? This
would mean we'd not have to rush into Opus or newer Celt while they
are still not declared bitstram stable.

Daniel
