MPEG-1 plays everywhere. I have yet to hear of a multimedia-capable
system that couldn't handle it.
Ogg Theora has a codec available for Windows (and *might* play in the
new Winamp out of the box by now, as I know at one point AOL added
support for Ogg Vorbis to the default installer). People downloaded
Flash to watch Flash movies once upon a time, didn't they?
