JOrbis 0.0.16

JOrbis is a pure Java Ogg Vorbis decoder.
JOrbis accepts Ogg Vorbis bitstreams and decodes them to raw PCM.
Vorbis is a general purpose audio and music encoding format contemporary to MPEG-4s AAC and TwinVQ, the next generation beyond MPEG audio layer 3. Unlike the MPEG sponsored formats (and other proprietary formats such as RealAudio G2 and Windows flavor of the month), the Vorbis CODEC specification belongs to the public domain. All the technical details are published and documented, and any software entity may make full use of the format without royalty or patent concerns.
We sympathize the aim of the Ogg project. JOrbis is our contribution to the Ogg project in our style. We think the ubiquity of Vorbis decoder will leverage the popularity of Ogg Vorbis. We hope JOrbis will run on any platform, any devices and any web browsers, which support Java and every people will enjoy streamed musics without patent or royalty concerns about codec.
