Mp3 World |link|: Vbr

This is the king of the hill for VBR MP3s. Using the LAME encoder with -V 0 produces files that are statistically indistinguishable from the original CD source to the vast majority of human ears. While a pure 320 CBR file is technically larger, V0 often sounds better because it allocates bits intelligently. In the Vbr Mp3 World, V0 is the standard for "archival quality" lossy files.
