I've got some Ogg Vorbis files that I want to use with iTunes - what's the best way to do this?

Do I have to re-encode (in which case I'll trash the Oggs and start over - but a big hassle), or is there a non-rubbish way of doing it?

Thanks!

Will the oggs automatically transfer across to my ipod (and then be unusable?) or does itunes know that they don't work and so doesn't transfer? Or do I just unselect the particular tracks?

As far as I know, iTunes just won't copy over anything the iPod doesn't support.
