The short answer: it sounds much better even at lower bitrates (quality
settings.)

Say, too many people are analysing history, namely mp3 vs Ogg... I'm
getting curious now, still thinking of what I plan to do for a thesis
in digital signal processing - not sure if I want to go the sound or
image processing route - is there some topic which could help the
Tarkin (if that is still being dreamt about) or Theora projects which
I could research for thesis purposes?

(I'm just collecting ideas at this point, this semester is already
over-full with academic work. I should be starting on thesis work (for
my masters degree) in July/August.

Regards,
Hugo van der Merwe
