I think top priority should be to fix this downward annoying
file loading behavior. I guess the delayed playback which is
reported here, is yet again caused by the component wanting
to download an entire file into memory before playing it,
and this happens under all platforms. If FLAC is implemented
and the component still shows this behavior, it will take
even longer to open a FLAC file because these files are
mostly larger than OGG files.
Yesterday I opened a file which was still being downloaded
in QT Player (OS X 10.2), and it hung completely with the
dreaded color wheel. I guess it might have resumed when the
file was complete, but I didn't have that much patience and
killed QT Player. After this, QT Player crashes everytime I
open anything, and the logs show "EXC_BAD_ACCESS". The only
way to fix this is to reboot. Really nice. (NOT).
However, I have the feeling that nobody is still working on
this thing. Hello, is there anybody out there? Please give
us a sign of life if you still have - or don't have - plans
to work on this unfinished project...

The importer has to read through the entire file to properly import the
vorbis sound. There have been some performance optimizations in 1.0d7
to improve the time it takes to read.
