I don't have CBC figured out. The "Find out why CBC.ca uses Windows Media Player" and "(optimized for Windows Media Player 9)" suggests that they use only that codec. But they don't. The Sonos system comes with a bunch of CBC streams via MP3, and the network goes out of its way to promote Ogg Vorbis, the only truly free and open codec out there. (MP3, while relatively open and widely used, is encumbered by patents.)
