Vorbital is an MP3 and Ogg Vorbis music player. It uses OpenAL and is small and compact in order to take up as little screen space as possible (though you can, of course, resize the window if you would like a larger playlist).

Vorbital doesn't presume to manage your music library for you. We trust you to do that in the way that you want to.

MP3 is the de facto standard in digital music. Most modern music is encoded as MP3s.

Ogg Vorbis is a free music codec that is unencumbered by patents and can be freely used by everyone. Audio encoded with Vorbis is usually slightly higher quality than an MP3 recorded at the same bitrate.

Vorbital supports playback of MP3, Ogg Vorbis, .WAV, FLAC, Wavpack, AIFF, and SND format audio files.

A few sample Ogg Vorbis files are available at http://www.vorbis.com/music/.

The Vorbital Player is free software and may be distributed freely.
