Which exist -- MPEG 2 layer 3 encoded data inside a WAV wrapper.

I'd still say the majority will know, and those which don't will learn

Hopefully the tools they use to actually put the files on the player
(someone best writing something better than mounting and using nautilus)
can use the USB ID to detect the type of player and alert the user if
they are trying to put Oggs on a MP3-only device.
