Hello,

I need to put a series of lectures on the Internet, thus I'm trying to
find optimal balance in trade-off between size and quality. A good
result is obtained by

lame --abr 60 -m m file.wav file.mp3

but it is still too lengthy and the decrease of ABR to 30 means too
substantial deterioration of quality. So questions are: (1) is the ABR
technology the best option as regards this purpose? (2) Wouldn't be
other format than MP3 less capacity intensive? (ogg, wmf...) or are
there any advices when working with speech rather than music?

thanks
Martin
