The Truecrypt filesystem encryptor (http://www.truecrypt.org) allows
one to use binary key files.  You can use any file you like; I think
the first 1024 bits are used for the key.

So you could rip a CD and use your Ogg Vorbis or FLAC file for your
filesystem encryption.

But if you lose your keyfile, or even if so much as one bit of the
keyfile gets flipped, you won't be able to decrypt your filesystem
anymore!
