The 'to 128kbps/channel' looks incorrect to me.

If I am not mistaken, Ogg Vorbis can go a lot higher
than that?

Hi:

That paragraph has been there since the beta1 release.  It has been wrong
for a long time.  Yes, it can go higher than 128kbps/channel.  It can also
do other sampling rates than 44.1 and 48, but it cannot yet do 44.1 at
16kbps/channel.  I'd like to see such a rate achieved, but I'm not
holding
my breath right now.

Geoff.
