Ogg media data in Wikipedia is served with incorrect MIME type
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: dan

Description:
When you select a link in Wikipedia to an Ogg Vorbis sound file (or other Ogg
data) that has been uploaded, the resulting data is served with HTTP headers
giving its content-type as "application/octetstream". This is not the proper
MIME type for this data format, which is "application/ogg" according to the
Wikipedia entry on [[Ogg]]. In fact, "application/octetstream" isn't even a
proper MIME type at all, since the correct type for "unspecified binary data" is
"application/octet-stream", with a dash.
