[Bart]

I would suggest for OggVorbis too. It is open source, crossplattform too 
and there are many tools as open source available too. And may some 
funny things like a DirectShow Filter for Windows and a plugin for 
Quicktime (Win/ Mac).

What about using FMOD Libs?
http://www.fmod.org/
They are crossplattform and supporting MP3 and OGG too.
