Librispeech documentation, clarification on format

Is this still true?

In my case, `ds["train.100"]` returns:
```
Dataset({
features: ['file', 'audio', 'text', 'speaker_id', 'chapter_id', 'id'],
num_rows: 28539
})
```
and taking the first instance yields:
```
{'file': '374-180298-0000.flac',
'audio': {'path': '374-180298-0000.flac',
'array': array([ 7.01904297e-04, 7.32421875e-04, 7.32421875e-04, ...,
-2.74658203e-04, -1.83105469e-04, -3.05175781e-05]),
'sampling_rate': 16000},
'text': 'CHAPTER SIXTEEN I MIGHT HAVE TOLD YOU OF THE BEGINNING OF THIS LIAISON IN A FEW LINES BUT I WANTED YOU TO SEE EVERY STEP BY WHICH WE CAME I TO AGREE TO WHATEVER MARGUERITE WISHED',
'speaker_id': 374,
'chapter_id': 180298,
'id': '374-180298-0000'}
```

The `audio` `array` seems to be already decoded. So such convert/decode code as mentioned in the doc is wrong?

But I wonder, is it actually stored as flac on disk, and the decoding is done on-the-fly? Or was it decoded already during the preparation and is stored as raw samples on disk?

Note that I also used `datasets.load_dataset("librispeech_asr", "clean").save_to_disk(...)` and then `datasets.load_from_disk(...)` in this example. Does this change anything on how it is stored on disk?

A small related question: Actually I would prefer to even store it as mp3 or ogg on disk. Is this easy to convert?
