I don't see what's so bad about libsndfile (other than the lack of common 
formats beyond (AD)PCM and FLAC.. like Vorbis, AC3, AAC, etc). The virtio 
interface is as generic as can be (read function, write function, tell 
function, seek function, length function..).

libaudiofile (<http://www.68k.org/~michael/audiofile/>?) doesn't seem to have 
any of its own documentation online. It just links to SGI's for "a good 
overview" of the API, nor does it have a list of what formats it supports.
