Not similar results at all.  -Y is producing much larger files with less spread across 
the
bitrates.  A graph of the -Y results doesn't look natural in my opinion with the sharp 
drop
after 160.  There is also less change to average bitrates when changing -V values.  
-V9 just
droped the average by 20kb/s as shown (5 minute song).
