    i haven't searched the archives yet, so don't flame me for this please,
but..

    i'm interested in encoding some .wavs i have at the highest quality
possible.  disk space isn't much of a concern here other than that a
"significant reduction" from the original PCM size would be nice.  at the
moment i'm using lame -v 0 (which typically generates mp3s at ~300kb), but
some cookie on the linux-audio-dev mailing list mentioned that for
high-quality encoding, mpeg-2 is much better.

    i'm not sure if he meant mpeg-2 or mpeg-1 layer II, but in any case, i'm
unsure where to find a decent mpeg-2 encoder with source code.  any
suggestions?  any comments on the mpeg-1 layer II (or any other forms of v.
high quality encoding) would also be appreciated.
