mp3 question
What's the difference between "stereo" and "joint stereo?"

(I could've probably found it with google, but sometimes I just feel like asking some friendly people for a simple explanation.)

3. Stereo channels are completely independent, while joint stereo
channels are related algorithmically to increase compression.

4. so strictly speaking "stereo" would beat "joint stereo" in sheer quality?
Is that right?

5. not necessarily
A good implementation of Mid/Side Joint Stereo can produce results practically identical to the "normal" stereo at better compression levels.

6. go for OGG, not MP3 / quality is much better and support is getting
better and better.
