You can try a p2p client (like Ares/LimeWire/eDonkey/...) and search for oggs. I just converted my whole mp3 collection in to ogg's with dBPowerAmp. A great easy to use tool. So now instead of 200 mp3s, I can store up to 400 oggs on my sd card! 😮 😎 (Succes met het downloaden/omzetten 😃 )

Download and install CDex, an open source ripping software that supports the Ogg format: http://cdexos.sourceforge.net/

Then use it to either rip your CDs to Ogg or convert your MP3 files to the Ogg format. Once you've done that, copy the Ogg file to your phone and you're done.

Ogg Vorbis is a free Open Source format with converters and players for most platforms. dBPowerAmp is a good Windows freeware app, Ogg Drop X is good for Mac OS X.

Remember that you will lose (more) quality converting MP3 -> Ogg; better to encode from the original if you can.
