MP3 encoder with the format munged and 'protection' added.. I'll see if I
can find documentation on that..
As for these tests, I'd take them with a grain or two of salt: Many of
their subjects had a hard time telling most pieces at 128Kb/s mp3 from the
orignal CD. This doesn't make any sence, as anyone with a somewhat decent
audio system should be able to hear thew 16K low pass, much less the other
distorition.
