    Yes - each of the recent videos now has an "OGG Theora" link next to
    the proprietary "ad free" formats. "Mix Tape" only has quicktime, and
    the oldest two has MPEG.

>From what you say, the Mix Tape is still a real problem.  The two
MPEGs are also somewhat of a problem.  MPEG formats are patented, and
some GNU/Linux distros do not ship software that can play them, for
fear of getting sued.

Does anyone have high quality masters of them, from which to make the
best possible Ogg Theora files?
