Hello,

Hrmm... that is an interesting idea.  I completely hadn't thought of this.  Does this 
actually take away bits from being used to encode the audio frame?  If so then what is 
the real use of this switch?  I had thought this switch would help to prevent the mp3 
from being possibly corrupted by being transferred over and over again.  Not that this 
really happens often but I thought why not.  If however this switch really isn't that 
useful and it takes bits away from being used to encode the audio then I will stop 
using it.  Currently I haven't noticed any degredation in sound just through normal 
listening tests, although I haven't looked into the matter further.  I will do some 
testing and see if encoding without this switch seems to have any impact.
