Well, I just compared speed: Xing is about 4 times faster than Lame in VBR
mode.

| Who knows how did they program it... But they did sacrifice some quality.

| LAME is pretty fast too. I haven't benchmarked and compared both, though.
Would you

|
| LAME definitely delivers higher quality than Xing. Xing isn't the worst
encoder, but
| isn't the best either.
