[Mat Bettinson]

Heya Karol,

KP> a comparison between the two formats can be read at 
KP> http://www.digit-life.com/articles/oggvslame/index.html .  i 
KP> first heard of this from Vorbis Extreme ( 
KP> http://solair.eunet.yu/~aldov/ ).
KP> anyone see any problems with the review?

Sure, it does that same stupid thing that all reviews of codecs on the
Net appear to do. It looks at graphs of raw data in the frequency
domain. It appears that these people have understood nothing about the
issues of psycho acoustics.

Undoubtedly you'll find that this guy claims he can hear 24KHz too,
most of them do. One really ought to ignore this sort of thing in
favor of the only valid test, double blind tests.
