I must start by saying i absolutely adore dbpoweramp, i have used so many programmes over the years but finding this was like a revelation, GOOD WORK!!
I have started to run out of space on my ipod, i have a massive music collection and alot of it I have had to just accept won't be on my 80gb ipod, but it's got to the stage now where I can't make any more room for music that really must appear on my ipod.
I've converted a few albums from 320kbps to -v 0 VBR and I save around 30mbs an album so this seems like a clever step forward. I've listened to the two bit rates back side by side and can't really hear a difference in quality but this is something I would want to explore more of before converting everything.
I was wondering if anybody has any input? As anybody done this before? How did it go? If i'm correct I understand converting lossy to lossy (mp3 to mp3) no matter the bitrate will result in a loss but I'm wondering how measurable a loss this will be. Like I say I have listened to the 2 versions of a track back through good 5.1 speakers and headphones and can't really hear a difference but when I do hear a difference I'm not sure if it's my head playing tricks on me :cry:.
Does anybody know of a more advanced way of checking the difference between the 2 bitrates or does anybody know more about how much of a loss I am resulting in converting this way.
Though I mentioned size, quality is my priority so if you guys can give me some idea that would be bril :D
Much love to the dBPoweramp world!
