There is an integer implimentation called tremor. I believe it is more to do with the fact that there is often a dedicated mp3 decoder in these portable devices, and it has to burn the cpu for decoding vorbis.

Can anyone explain the odd size choices? I've never done any cloud stuff, or even much local virtualization, but I would have expected sized on the low side or equal to an even number (32gb, 64gb) rather than a little higher.
