bah, ignorance is such a harsh word

(but, tip, as i'm sure you kno, but...google is a great way to find information)

anyways...tru that much of what you will find on say, p2p progs is 128..but the actual mp3 release scene standard is 192.
and yes, between the two, even i can hear the diff, and i suck at such things.
imo, no need to go higher unless you've got good equipment for hi-qual output...

and, LAME is good and much used for encoding..good and fast...

but personally i prefer radium's fraunhofer. :shrug:
