Please consider that you can also shoot yourself in the foot with WMA
and MP3 if you choose unreasonable settings.

But an ACM should really only offer modes that make some sense. For
the very low bitrates I will restrict it to Mono at bandwidths of
possibly 16, 22.05 and 32 kHz.

But hey, I am working on other exciting codec stuff right now
and I haven't even coded a single line of this Vorbis ACM yet!
Maybe it was a mistake to put it into the projects list on my site
at this prenatal (even pre-inseminated!) stage. ;)
