    real headz use low bitrate realaudio files and use 320kbps mp3s for toilet paper.

    It's a selling point.

    what bitrate do realheadz encode at?
  • Ex-BoyfriendEx-Boyfriend 795 Posts
    192. There is no audible difference above that.

    really? wow I've been encoding vinyl @ 320 for nothing?

    are you trying to save some storage space ?

    I keep it realer than real & use VBR (variable bit rate). ?

    For those listening to music on the built-in Lego loudspeakers of their laptop, maybe. For the rest this statement is complete BS.

    VBR and CBR (constant bit rate) files can't be joined together, so I prefer all of my files to be CBR since that seems to be the more common bit rate.

    Yeah, i avoid VBR when possible.

    Have people seen what hard drives go for these days? You could rip your whole collection at 192 or VBR and save, literally, nickles!!!

    Dolo laying down the illest performance never seen in the history of man at Mindgarden Arena, and all at 192 kbps.

    The rest of us are just c0wards.

    It matters if you dl shit at the rate I do. I estimate I have something like 4 terabytes of music altogether. Obviously the cost involved in such a huge collection would be more or less doubled if I encoded at 320 kbps and for no audible gain.

    no audible gain.

    Dude, you deserve nothing better than 192 kbps.

    Wow 4 tb. With all your talk of luxurious feather mattresses I just assumed you could afford to drop a hundred and thirty bucks for some more space. Hope things pick up for you again soon baller...

    Complaining about a lack of mp3 storage space is a terrible look.

    He ethered himself with this one.

    I dont even fusk with MP3s...just to upload to share or put on an auction, my digital music collection on my computer is all .WAV, because, well I care about the highs and the lows...of course I generally listen to records, because, well, I listen to old music and I actually like it...just dont listen to it on my Ipod or on my laptop.

    I dont own an Ipod, I used bad word choice there...I was trying to say my main piece of equipment for listening to music isnt an ipod or laptop, which it probably is for the dolo

    Its not feathers, it is a material developed by NASA. You can dream about it tonight, that is of course if you can even get to sleep lying on your springy piece of poor man garbage.

    I swear mp3 coding is getting worse or my ears have gotten more sensitive to it. Back in the late 90s/early 00s I used to do everything at 128k & swore there was no difference, these days I can barely stand 160k.
