We both have a very strong dislike for the way the arrogant people at the r3mix.net forum try to run things, and like to emphasize that you should NOT rely on any of the so-called "test results" available there and elsewhere on the www; There are some very slick charlatans busy spreading lies about audio quality issues involving LAME, MP3 and VBR. Such un-reliable material often involves bitter teen-age boys who suffer from delusions of grandeur; They like to portray themselves as having excessively trained or otherwise exceptional hearing capabilities, out of the blue pretend to know everything about audio, often causing panic among LAME-users, probably just because they're spoiled, bored with their lives, loving all the attention.
