I note that the aactomp3 option specifies CBR 128kb. I'd like to be able to use VBR instead of CBR and to be able to set up which -V mode to use via a pref. (see http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?title=LAME#VBR_.28variable_bitrate.29_settings for more info on -V modes) Before I spend any time working on this, is this something anyone else would like to see or are most people happy with 128kb CBR?
