there is a really nice tutorial about ogg-streaming:

http://www.devmaster.net/articles/openal-tutorials/lesson8.php


but beware, there are some minor bugs in the code (read the accompanying
discussion )

i have written my own ogg_stream class based on this tutorial and can
now stream ogg files very nicely, even from memory a memory buffer. i
can email you my code, if you would like to have it.
