Reduce audio file size

[mhulse]

Working on that now.

I've found some compression settings that I can live with:

That reduced a 1.5MB file down to 385KB. While I prefer to hear awesome sounds, it's probably best not to hog resources for the sake of audio snobbery.

Remember that the OGG files are fore browsers that support it. Technically one or the other file type will load depending on what it supports, so the folder/file sizes above are less when page actually loads.

Just realized the Miro Video converter is generating huge (compared to MP3 twin) OGG file sizes.

If we were to compress images a tad, I think we could make things even smaller.

Commit with new OGG files coming shortly.
