The Sync process doesn't modify the originals in any way. Of course any user can modify files by modifying the tags within MediaMonkey itself. If you worry you could setup an Windows account that has no write permissions to the music directory or a seperate Windows account that has the MediaMonkey options set to not update tracks on tag change (this last option will still allow users to modify tracks thru the synchronize tags funtion).
As for the OGG being synced back, I don't think MediaMonkey does that. It's a one-way sync to the device not from.
