Don't get me wrong, I like Ogg, it sounds great, and has VBR. But----
1.) I ain't paid nothing for mp3 since, and I don't intend to, they don't know!
2.) "Suicide triggers"???
My solution.

3.) I have bladeenc for Linux which is still made, and they aint bending over to kiss Fraunheifer's fat butt and neither will I.
Go Ogg, but I will not give up my mp3 until I am good and ready, I say use BOTH.
Now if Ogg decides to kick mp3 in the butt, have id3 and the other new tags, all built in and no stupid digging around in a damn config file to config it, then I will ditch mp3 totally.
But for now, my ogg and mp3 are good neighbours on my hard drive.
