[vorbis] Low bitrate: when?

[Patrick Masters]

Well, that seems kind of shitty that he isnt contributing the low bit rate
to open source code. Gee, looks liek something free made someone else a bit
more greedy. Thats ok, Im sure what Monty has cooked up is better and will
serve us better.

Thank you, this is kind of you.
...but I think that I won't upload a 270 MB file through my poor modem :-(
I'll rather follow the advice of Wilson, and cut some samples.
I'm also afraid of the sound rendering, after all Stonehenge is not rap,
so giving high quality samples is perhaps the less worse solution. And
people who like will order a CD :-)
I'll try later with low bitrate when it comes out... I've read it is not
far, am I right? nobody answered this.
Anyway thanks for the offer.
