Irivers support OGG but not sure about FLAC (i think not)

Pardon ?
Back on topic - my excellent Creative headphones terminally lost their left drivers on Sunday afternoon while I was in mid-walk, and strangely, right at the end of the pier I promenade down....
It was a long and lonely walk back, operating on one channel etc
A strangely hollow and lop-sided and unbalanced experience......
All of that dance music with high-volume bass with all the settings tweaked up to the max finally took it's toll.......

Luckily - I have a second pair in reserve - and am soon ordering another !

Did you find yourself going round in circles as you were walking back. This often happens to me, but it has nothing to do with my headphones.
