In Firefox with MP3 files, there is a big black box with an x above the "click hear for file audio mpeg" while ogg files seem to play directly.. see

versus
http://dev.transmissionarts.org/audio/b3f54de OGG

But in Safari, both mp3 and ogg have players that appear and work.

Most of the transmissionarts.org archive audio files will be mp3s. So I'm wondering how to best handle this? Maybe a disclaimer? Or suppressing the embedded player unless it can be made to work?
