I was told *by the developer* (Monty, in #vorbis IRC long ago) that
Ogg Vorbis files were designed for this.
A few Google searches to provide supporting evidence:
https://linux.die.net/man/1/oggz-merge
If you want to create a file containing some Ogg files sequenced one after
another, then you should simply concatenate them together using cat. In Ogg
this is called "chaining". If you cat Ogg Vorbis I audio files together, then
the result will also be a compliant Ogg Vorbis file.

Chaining in an ogg container is as simple as it gets. Just concatenate two
separate ogg files together, the result is a chained file.
However, I will note that there *are* players that don't handle
chained Ogg Vorbis files properly. So, make sure you test with the
actual player you intend to use.
