The answer is not "basically no", and the qualifier of the initial argument was specifically 320kbps mp3. No one here is arguing that modern, high-bitrate code

The answer is not "basically no", and the qualifier of the initial argument was specifically 320kbps mp3.
No one here is arguing that modern, high-bitrate codecs aren't much better at producing imperceptible artifacts. But 128kbps is absolutely not enough in blind listening tests, 128kpbs typically produces a ton of perceptible artifacts. You're just making that up.
- pja 3y agoYes, I should have caveated that: 128kbit mp3 from a decent encoder is transparent to average listeners. To a “trained” ear that is listening out for the differences? Sure, those are perceptible. But those aren’t normal people.
