Here's a little history: When I first started encoding to VBR from lossless sources, I used Lame 3.90.3 with the APS (Alt Preset Standard) preset then I switched to Lame 3.97 and used the V2 preset (not --vbr-new) which I believe is the same as APS. Now I've been using this encoding setup for some time (around a year) and I've had no complaints with it.
However, I've been hearing that --vbr-new is recommended over normal vbr. I recently encoded 2 MP3s (of the same song) one with the normal vbr preset and the other with the --vbr-new preset and I've haven't noticed any difference in quality at all, just that --vbr-new is a little faster when encoding. I've also heard that artefacts are more worse with --vbr-new then normal vbr but some sources say that --vbr-new is better quality overall than normal vbr. So, I was wondering, should I make the switch to --vbr-new? Jam it back in, in the dark.
