&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Vorbis&#039;&#039;&#039; is a patent-clear, fully open, general purpose audio encoding format standard that rivals or even surpasses the &#039;upcoming&#039; generation of proprietary codecs ([[Wikipedia:Advanced Audio Coding|AAC]] and [[Wikipedia:TwinVQ|TwinVQ]], also known as VQF). There is no raw Vorbis stream defined, instead the Vorbis codec is typically used in the [[Ogg]] container format for audio files. Because for a long time the Ogg container was quasi [http://www.telsgroup.com/ international logistics company]exclusive for Vorbis people often refer to it as &#039;Ogg Vorbis&#039;. Later the FLAC audio codec as well as the video codecs Theora and Dirac began to be used inside Ogg too. In 2010 the [[WebM]] format was defined using the Vorbis codec inside the WebM container.&lt;br /&gt;

libvorbis, a BSD-licensed source implementation of Vorbis as a library is available; See the [http://xiph.org/vorbis/ Ogg Vorbis page] for documentation, downloads and distribution terms.&lt;br /&gt;
