That's not surprising, since if it did contain ECC, it would have 
similar overhead to CD Mode 1. As has been suggested in other fora, like 
Doom9, video and audio can get away with error concealment, rather than 
correction. So, the question is: What happens if MPlayer reads an OGG 
packet with a bad bit or two? Will it be able to discard a frame or 
sample or several frames or samples and keep going? If so, Mode 2 could 
be very useful.
