It’s official now. I’m oggifying my entire music library. I currently have a huge mp3 library (of some 2000 tracks) that did not bother me much because I have codecs for most of the proprietary formats. Plus the thought of converting 2000+ tracks always put me off. So what changed? I installed kubuntu fiesty fawn 7.04 herd5 on Tuesday and loved it. Tried to play music and remembered I did not have fiesty fawn multimedia codec packages. 
It was terribly annoying and my free spirit kindled. So now I’m converting all my mp3 files into ogg format. Next, I’m going to look for a sane video converter and convert my video files too.

Ramiro,
I’m not sure I understand you but if you’re asking for Peruvian music, I’m sorry I don’t have any. Plus it might be easier to just download them from the internet.

I am not an audiophile or anything, but I believe that transcoding from one lossy format to another results in significant sound quality loss. A while ago, I decided to OGGify my collection as well. Instead of converting my WMAs (yes, WMAs
) directly to OGG, I deleted them, and re-ripped my CD collection straight to OGG.
It is even more of an effort, but my music sounds great as a result. If you go straight from MP3 to OGG, the OGGs will sound worse than the MP3 files, regardless of the compression level.

Hmm, I’m not an audiophile either but I did a few trials and upon comparison, the mp3 and ogg files sounded the same to me. I’m almost done with the conversion and I still don’t notice any significant sound quality loss. I’m not saying there won’t be or there wasn’t any sound quality loss… just that I did not notice it.
