Music Questions

What's the best file to listen to music? I've been under the impression it's 360kbs Mp3. But I've heard others mention its FLAC. Thoughts?

mp3 unless you're headphones are worth at least $400

WAV, unless you're too poor to afford a bigger drive.

In theory, a lossless format like FLAC or WAV.
In practice, (almost) any lossy format at a high enough bitrate will have imperceptible loss. Opus is particularly good for this, becoming transparent somewhere around 160kbs.

FLAC at home, opus on your portable player.

winamp you fucking zoomer

for sheer listening pleasure?
I use FLAC
however as a result, i have something like 175GB of music

if you want the most music per megabyte, id go with MP3 VBR V0, you still get a high quality listening experience, with minimal loss of detail, and a small file size
i have not tried opus yet, but it might be interesting to give it a shot.

I listen to baroque counterpoint.
Midi is the best format, unironically.
Perfect rythm.
Independent audible voices.
Plebs wont understand this autism and listen to Richter.

How can there even be a discussion.

FLAC
>lossless
>compressed unlike WAV so it takes less storage for the exact same quality
OGA Vorbis or Opus
>better size/quality ratio than MP3
>Actually, everything nowdays is compatible with those (exept maybe your old car radio)

If you don't have dog shit headphones then FLAC 100%

What the FUCK have you done to your fonts?

.flac for music collection. .opus for music on the phone.

>flac

fucking plebs, lurk more

>I've been under the impression it's 360kbs Mp3
MP3 doesn't go that high.

.opus

>MP3 VBR V0
Where would you even find this except on sekrit club trackers? Why would you ever want variable bitrate anyway? It's not like 320 kbps MP3s take that much space anyway.

FLAC for desktop/archival purposes, 160Kbps Opus for on the go.

>he doesn't print sheet music of his songs

It's mp3 if you wabt to save space, but have good quality.
However, at least on my phone, m4a gives me an easier time editing the audio tags, file names and album cover. They're the exact dame file size, so they're probably have the same quality anyway.

for reasons I don't know since I have no idea what I'm talking about, dbpoweramp and the rest of the converters convert faster to V0 than to CBR. It's not a minuscule difference, it's a pretty noticeable difference. 40/50% faster
>160Kbps Opus for on the go.
Overkill. Opus at 128kbps is transparent to almost everyone. And, if you don't have an overly privileged ear, 96kbps also sounds perfectly transparent (at least to me, with my compeltely average hearing).

that's cute

not him but 175gb of FLAC music is a laughable amount of music
