[vorbis] When will quality increase be unnoticable?

[engdev]

Everyone so far says to listen to your music, pick
a quality where you can't hear the difference, and
then increase it by one....

With the (rumored) bit-peeling feature, which is
not available yet, it will be possible to encode
as high as you like, and then 'peel' back to a
lower rate.

This sounds *very* nice, but questions to the
developers...

Is bit-peeling going to be real (or just a rumor
forever)?

Will doing a peel from -q9 to something equivilant
to -q6 be the same as originally encoding -q6, or
will it do somthing else (like just change the
average bitrate)?

Thanks for your time,
Owen.
