        Thanks for the reply!  Ah hehe :)  Actually I need a high qual MP3 because 
this batch of compressed audio will 
be converted and reconverted a few times.  Might as well start high and get lower from 
there.

        One other question for the group, but again just for curiosity I was wondering 
if the Lame encoder has gotten 
better than the old 1.2.x Fraunhofer codec?  Is there a rough consensus that Lame is 
now superior or are there applications 
where the FhG codec routines are still superior?
        I don't mean that in an offensive way, but around v3.8x I remember hearing 
mention that Lame's VBR was good, 
but its CBR was still inferior.  Now I've heard vague rumours that the CBR is also 
superior at this point and was wondering if 
anyone knew?
