[vorbis] VBR vs ABR

[Michael Lechasseur]

Hello,

I purchased the "CD Ripper 2" plugin for Winamp 3 and need help choosing 
an ogg encoding format.  It seems I have the choice between VBR and ABR 
formatted oggs.  I am familiar with VBR (variable bit rate) but not sure 
what ABR stands for?

Is it possible/desirable to specify a bit rate when encoding oggs, or 
does the nature of the ogg format make use of varying bit rates?

Many thanks,

Michael Lechasseur
