I've been busy re-ripping my CD collection to FLAC files for archiving purposes and have noticed the --ogg command line option in the flac man page. What is the purpose of this? Obviously I know the audio is still lossless but why would I want to use Ogg FLAC streams rather than native FLAC streams?

Ah, thanks for the information. That makes some sense. I guess I don't need to worry about it in that case since I am just using FLAC to archive my music. I'll be using Ogg Vorbis to actually listen to it on my phone.
