Straight from the man page of oggenc :
--managed
Set bitrate management mode. This turns off the
normal VBR encoding, but allows hard or soft
bitrate constraints to be enforced by the encoder.
It means you still don't have complete control over the encoder's bit rate
options when it comes to some complex passages in the music. My suggestion is
to get all your music in wave form and reencode it in ogg using the quality
setting rather than bit rates. My 10gb (and growing) ogg collection sounds
just great at quality setting -6 which is near cd quality.
$oggenc -q 6 *.wav # would get you a good trade-off between file
size and
# quality
As Vinu suggested, do not inflate mp3s and reencode them in ogg .
mp3 to wave to ogg = complete loss
