I found it quite amusing to read the 128 kbps results in the c't 
test. Both the professional panel (composers, musicians, sound engineers) 
and the reader panel had problems to find the original uncompressed 
sound file among the compressed samples. There were only a small 
difference in the rating of the uncompressed sample, Vorbis and MP3.

<p>So you are basically right. For "archival quality" at the bitrates 
you are using, there is absolutely no reason to switch from MP3 to 
Vorbis. Stay with MP3, as you can assume that this format will be 
much more often supported than Vorbis.
