[Vorbis] Question on Quality factor, Bitrate and decode table

[Christopher John Harrington]

This is actually no longer the case. The audible chirps have been 
replaces with very short periods of silence.

Also, the number of skips has been reduced dramatically as portions of 
the firmware are optimized and improved.
