Here's from the quite good Lame Manual :
Joint-stereo is the default mode for stereo files with VBR when -V is
more than 4 or fixed bitrates of 160kbs or less. At higher fixed
bitrates or higher VBR settings, the default is stereo.

Yes, But I'm not sure you -want- to do -V 0. Really. (flac is a better
alternative)

once more, do you want 320kbps, or 320kbs maximum? Ogg Vorbis doesn't
have the "max is 320 kbps" limit that mp3 does, so to limit Vorbis down
below 320 kbps just because lame does
as for stereo/ joint stereo, ogg has one mode there, quite simplistic
but no quality tradeoff.
