Greetings!

Sorry! I'm all over the place with e-mail at the moment.

Some time ago, someone on list asked about VBR quality with LAME, they said 
that they were getting mixed results with a quality figure of 9.

This will indeed be the case as (with the VBR encoding) 9 is the worst 
quality you can use.  The quality for VBR encoding is slightly different to 
that of Constant bit rate encoding, the quality setting for VBR 
encoding  affects both the encoded audio nad the size of the file thus the 
best quality figure is probably about 5, where you get maximum quality and 
maximum compression.

LAME boasts 2 VBR methods, "OLD" and "NEW", "NEW", is very fast but doesn't 
produce as good a results as does "OLD", which is considerably 
slower.  Naturally! this situation will change as time goes on.
