High Quality Mp3 Encoding

If you use MusicMatch or Windows Media Player or any other basic mp3 encoding software you might be interested in knowing that you can gain a much higher quality mp3 with not too much work. I came across Chris Myden’s “Quintessential Guide to Creating High Quality Mp3s” just over a year ago. I had no idea what I was missing until I followed his instructions and compared one of my favorite albums with a 128K encoded mp3 from MusicMatch with one using Exact Audio Copy and the Lame codec with the alt-present-standard switch.

If you own a quality set of speakers or headphones you’ll definitely notice the quality difference if you’re ears are used to 128K mp3 or 64K wma files.
