[vorbis] quality

[Erik Stenborg]

Hi all!

I ran across another song that oggenc seems to have trouble to encode. The
intro of U2:s "Grace" gets its right channel messed up by oggenc, even at
the highest bitrate. Why is the bitrate only 218? Isn't that awfully
little when asking for 320?

Qualityflaws like these is the reason i prefer mp3 and mpplus today. But
vorbis is getting better for every beta, so keep up the good work! =)
