Just a side note - there's no such thing as 320kb VBR. If you're at 320, that is the highest bitrate supported by mp3. Since each sample is at 320kb, it's technically CBR. I agree that 320kb mp3 is very difficult to distinguish from the original WAV, and is a nice compromise as far as saving drive space and using with portable players. You aren't missing much, if anything, by using 320kb mp3. -- Pale Blue Ego ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pale Blue Ego's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=110 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33415 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
