Hi there,

Is it a generally accepted fact that .ogg at Q6 will be of a higher quality than an MP3 encoded at -aps?

I'm under the assumption that both of those files will be somewhere around 196kps. I've read a bit about both file types and it seems that for a given bitrate .ogg wins.

Thanks for any info

I've tried to answer this question myself last summer. It's classical only (excepted one Diana Krall sample):

Conclusions were:
CODE
OGG6.00 is better than LAME_V2, OGG5.99, OGG5.5, LAME_V3


[lame V2 = --alt-preset standard]

I'd say yes.
Vorbis will also bloat a lot less on 'heavy' music genres such as hardcore or screamo.
