Listening Comparisons For Audio Codecs At 64kbps
waaka! writes "Hydrogenaudio has just wrapped up a listening test of various audio codecs at 64kbps. Check out the results, where Ogg Vorbis performed quite well, scoring significantly better than WMA, RealAudio and QuickTime AAC, and kept pace with MP3Pro and HE-AAC (AAC with the SBR extensions that MP3Pro uses). Clearly, though, no codec can honestly claim 128 kbps MP3 quality at 64 kbps. The charts at the end show entries for 128kbps LAME MP3 and 64kbps FhG MP3, but these are used as high and low anchors for reference, as MP3 is really out of its league at bitrates such as these."
If I wanted to listen to fuzzy FM sounding music I'd just liten to the crap they play on the radio.
The only application this might be good for would be video files where you want to keep file size down. Streaming radio isn't much better than regular radio in my experience so I just listen to my own music.
That post is written by something that is so stupid, if I took its tiny brain and rolled it down the edge of a razor blade, it would be like a lone car going down a six lane highway. How about putting that into proper syntax, form, and grammar so that I can at least understand what you are saying before I dismiss it?
If your brain matter was axle grease, there wouldn't be enough in your head to grease the dynamo on a lightening bug's ass. Are you always this ignorant, or are you making a special effort today? Reading your post makes blindness a wonderful thing to look forward to. As Abba Eban so aptly said: "His ignorance is encyclopedic."
What possessed you to think that you were capable of being entertaining or interesting to read? You are validating my inherent mistrust of strangers. Maybe you wouldn't be such a Jerk-In-The-Box if you weren't so stupid that even single-celled organisms out score you in IQ tests; if your weren't so fat from all that cheap beer you spend your Welfare payments on that your belly jiggle is the first ever perpetual motion machine, or if you didn't have a face designed exclusively for radio. No, come to think of it, you would.
Dullard, do yourself and everyone else a favor, take a fatal overdose of your medication.
Hi, and welcome to slashdot. You must be new here.
I refer to your latest discharge of plebeian verbiage; in which, you have proven, once again, that there is no such thing as unutterable nonsense. I suggest you hone your writing skills before applying borrowed glories as a mere typist.
I notice that you never let an idea interrupt the flow of your posts. Generally, there is nothing wrong with having nothing worthwhile to say - unless you insist on saying it. Well, you're certainly thoughtless; I just wish that you were keyboard-less, too. To quote Martin Luther King, Jr.: "Nothing in the world is more dangerous than a sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity."
Calling you dull is a gross underestimation of just how tedious you are. You have the personality of a damp sponge and the appeal of a moldy sweat sock. If you called the Suicide Hotline, they'd say: "Go ahead. Do it!" Maybe you wouldn't be such a Jerk-In-The-Box if your brain cells weren't on the Endangered Species list; if your weren't so fat that your clothes come in three sizes: Extra Large, Jumbo, and Oh-My-God-It's-Coming-Towards-Us!, or if you didn't have a face like a boiled Octopus. Who am I kidding? You would.
In closing, I offer these heartfelt words: Go suck on a frozen pineapple, asshole.
OOC, is it a program generating these posts, or are you actually taking the care and attention necessary to produce, by hand, these massive volumes of surprisingly well-written vitriol?
blah blah blah blah. Babble babble, you are a wind-bag of a retard.
Advertising? Hah! With what? Don't you GNU/Hippies understand you can't make money with free software? You need money to advertise!
Geez, get your head out of the clouds.
