I just noticed in the polls that more people use mpc than mp3!
Bearing in mind that I know nothing about mpc, could anyone explain the benefits over mp3? I use alt-preset extreme... does anyone recommend I upgrade to mpc? |

You lost me at variable "Q."
Seriously, that does make sense...format bias comes into play as well. But indeed there's no reason to bother with "W" and throw away bits if ABXing has shown you've reached perpetual transparency at a lower bitrate with codec "Z." |

lol!
when I wrote this at 4th of April, kwanbis repeated afterwards his post showing 2 different multiformat tests to compare........... weird... April jokes ? I knew (and posted) during the prediscussion of the latest 128k multiformat test, that cross-test-references are necessary and interesting in general, and that without this, sooner or later somebody will come and connect the old tests (eg. with mpc versions) and the new test (eg. without mpc), to show "somewhat", haha, a comparison between mpc measured/ranked in old tests to compare the old "value" with formats in new tests and their new "values".
