Multimedia, AV This PDF compares the quality of various audio compression codecs run with various parameters. Overall, of all the audio encodings attempted which produced output at the same sample rate as the input, constant bitrate MP3's produced the highest quality files, exceeded only by variable bitrate MP3's at bitrates above 224kbps. In all cases AAC produced inferior quality results.

Member since:

I think you just didn't bother to read any one of my previous posts. The whole point about lossy compression is to distort the sound as much as possible (without having you notice the distortion) to make the stream easier to compress! Thus, human perception is the ONLY way to judge an encoder!!

Therefore, the above article is unscientific because of its flawed method.
