It actually sounds quite good for most tracks, relatively I suppose. I'm
using that bitrate to conserve future space on a large flash drive, which
will of course be obsolete by the time it's filled! I was truly surprised
by these artifacts because I hadn't noticed such obvious shortcomings
before. EAC + LAME VBR is looking better now.
