Let 'er rip says the captain, err me: having used the LAME mp3 codec at its highest bit rate setting of 320 kbps, I am here to state that in most cases the mp3'ed LAME disc sounds better than the native .wav file.

No I haven't heard it, but I enjoy the fact that the very thought will terrorize those who think that they know all about digital already, that there's actually no more to know.
