Ogg Bitstream Format aims at becoming a general, freely-available standard for transporting multimedia content across computing platforms and networks.

• The application/ogg Media Type - (IETF RFC 3534) defines the MIME media type application/ogg to refer to this kind of content when transported across the Internet, Linus Walleij, May 2003
• The Ogg Encapsulation Format Version 0 - (IETF RFC 3533), describes the Ogg bitstream format version 0, to encapsulate any kind and number of video and audio encoding formats as well as other data streams in a single bitstream, Silvia Pfeiffer, May 2003
