I made a small test about sounds:
loaded a .wav file: 8 bits Mono 44100 Hz, file is 4.4 Mo, 1 min and 46 secs... and it take BMax some 4 to 5 seconds to load...
loaded a .ogg file: ? bits, Stereo, 44100 Hz, file is 3.7 Mo, 5 min and 39 secs to load...
Isn't that a bit too much time to load a sound??? Quicktime open both the .wav and the .ogg in less than 1 sec...
