[abcde] Vorbize




This patch to abcde ver 1.9.1 will allow "vorbize" to work when
"ENCODERSYNTAX=vorbize" is in /etc/abcde.conf or ~/.abcde.conf.

Stereo sounds as good as Joint Stereo to me, so I don't miss JS in
OGG. I've been using vorbize to oggify my CD collection for a while
now. For those considering OGG, I recommend encoding some selections
in both OGG and MP3 formats. It doesn't take long (setup's easy as
well with Debian packages), and if you still think MP3 is better, then
wait until Vorbis 1.0 hits the street. For me, though, OGG currently
sounds a little bit better and is currently a little smaller than the
equivalent MP3 (due to the finer VBR).

Sidenote: setting CDDBURL="http://freedb.freedb.org/~cddb/cddb.cgi"
works well for me, and means that you're not breaking Escient's
horrible little licensing deal. According to TODO, this is still under
consideration: what's preventing this change?

Kevin.
