I thought it was kind of neat to that a library I'd written was one of the 45 included. I was kind of curious to see what they'd changed, but it ended up being a little boring:

It's a library for reading / writing audio meta data (tags) and they basically just removed support for several formats. What's perhaps more interesting is what they didn't remove: I don't have a Kindle, but from the code this would seem to imply that it supports Ogg Vorbis and FLAC in some capacity.
Also noted that they're using a version from early 2008, even though there have been 5 more recent releases since.
Edit: I also went back and grabbed the very first Kindle release, which contained only 22 packages (TagLib still being one of them), and there they used an even older version (meaning they do at least sometimes grab newer versions of the libs).

Haven't tried with .ogg and .flac, but new Kindles have capacity to play .mp3 files. It's more of an experiment from on their part, and the player supports only play and pause operations.
- chopsueyar 15y agoI have the 1st gen Kindle and it always had the capability to play mp3s, as well as a removable memory card slot.

- shrikant 15y agoOh hello - and thank you for TagLib. It's crazy fast and made my life infinitely easier when I needed to roll my own quick-and-dirty ID3 cleaner-upper :)
