That, I didn't know!
Thanks J.P. for your reply given in the
spirit of open information exchange and
friendly banter.
I knew about the VBR, but didn't realise
the implicatations.Didn't know about the
floating point versus integer calculations.
I can see technical advantages.
It seems that to take advantage of all this
you need to go straight from source to
Ogg.Or at least have a collection of Oggs
produced that way, and not having been
subjected to a conversion process first.
And who has their favorite band locked
away in the garage (now that kidnaping
and deprivation of liberty have become
criminal offences)?
That last bit was actually a joke.
I probably need to point that out in some
cases.
Thanks again for the advice- that was very
informative!

Heh no prob. ^_^

Yeah, to reap the benefits of ogg, you need to encode them from a high bitrate source, like a .wav file.

Just converting an mp3 won't make any difference in sound quality at all.

Lame also offers VBR encoding...

But I LOVE the look on co-workers faces when I mention "OGG"
( lost-in-space )  :)
