FLAC and OGG are fine open formats, only issue is that a lot of the higher end software cant use them where as formats like pnj/jpg etc are widly supported audio is a lot harder to find a good format to work in that is widly supported. The major advantage of mp3 is that everything supports it, even tho it is patented =/
to be honest im ok with this, so long as its made so it cant be spammed like every day it seems resonable as adding a liscense makes the art usable to more people now
Took me a few to look up the case but take a look at Leibovitz v. Paramount Pictures Corp.
in the us a art style can not be copywritten.
While I dont have any issue with there being a watermark on hotlinked art (OGA is not an image host) it prolly should be noted somewhere.
I have installed as well as ordered some additional hardware and I am working on installing some new systems that should resolve these issues.

after I hit submit it throws that error
sure audacity can read them, but just like you said its the only one you know for windows that can, someone using flstudio, soundforge etc cant.
Playing isnt the problem its software you can import/export and edit those formats in that is the issue.
Oh dont get me wrong im not against encouriging it, however it will be a dificult thing to push as most software currently dont support them :)
