Hi group:

Lets say there is a 44.1 khz, monoaural, 32 kbps WMA file and a 44.1
khz, monoaural, 32 kbps MP3 file; which one would rather listen to?

I'd prefer the WMA. I readily notice the difference in WMA artifacts
and MP3 artifacts; the differences are very difficult for me to
describe, but they are signficant. Both resemble "digital tones" of old
video games and binary signals but they are noticeably different from
each other.

BTW, what is responsible for those differences in audio artifacts
resulting from a low-bit-rate WMAs vs. low-bit-rate MP3s?


Thanks,

Radium


A better question would be "Who cares?" Anything under 1411kbs you can keep
;-)
