Opus if you just want to listen.
Flac if you're going to do anything with it.
>>55527163
>Flac if you're going to do anything with it.
Why not just use WAV like a normal human being? FLAC compression can reduce file size as little as 10-20%. No point in jumping through a million hoops just for that.
>>55527412
Not him, but what hoops? There are none. The only hoops are for wav in terms of tags.
V0 if I have to use MP3. FLAC for archiving and ogg-vorbis for general use if possible.

Please leave, take your memes with you, and never come back.
>>55527412
Because 20% lower filesize = 20% less disk space used.
>>55527846
20% less upload
>not converting everything into HE-AAC v2
cringed
>>55527917
20% less download too, so it evens itself out

Loss of time, quality and IQ.

Opus 160kbps VBR

The worst part is he's using HE-AAC audio encoding which is clearly inferior to Opus audio encoding.

i use mp3 because my piece of shit music player does't support any other format but i'd rather use vorbis
>>55528040
HE-AAC isn't even meant to be transparent, just "good enough at low bitrates", you're supposed to use AAC-LC over 128kbps.
Opus is made for everything, from "ok" speech at 16kbps to transparent music at 192/160kbps

200GB is enough for your lifetime.

flac, or 192k opus
mp3 is tech illiterate normie tier
what's the best option between vorbis and opus? aren't they the same?
>>55528209
We have 256GB microsd cards and Android phones with 128GB of internal storage. So you can now achieve 384GB of total storage space on a phone.
Get with the times grandpa.
>>55528241
There are players with two sd card slots. Also I heard you can fit an msata ssd in classic ipods so you can have 512-1024 GB on the go. And since Android phones support USB OTG... Definitely not a problem.

Yup, you can upgrade iPod Minis with CF cards too

>>55528354
Do the math, dumbass
25MB WAV
25 * .8 = 20MB FLAC
20 / 25 = .8, 20% less
>>55526841
Mp3 just werks
>>55528397
>20% less disk space used.
I's not that m8. 20% of a 1TB disk would be 200GB. You don't save that much on disk space.
>>55528238
In quality: Opus>AAC>Vorbis>MP3
Everything that supports VP9 or AV1 will have to support Opus, at least in a Matroska container, so support should be getting better.
Low bitrates (<64kbps) are improved in the exp_lbr_tune branch, which should be part of 1.2
>>55528459
1411*0.8 = 1128.8kbps
Are you seriously saying that all of your music in FLAC combined is over that nitrate?
Wav for work

I'm not talking about exactly what happens, I'm going off what >>55527412 said.
Fun fact: you can strip useless padding bits from a 320kbps CBR and make it a VBR file with ~v0 bitrate. I forgot the name of the tool, though.
>>55529792
It's called peeling and it doesn't work
>>55529792
In reply to myself: http://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=MP3packer
>>55528098
Opus is still better than HE-AAC v2
>>55528238
vorbis can be up to around 500 kb/s, but opus has much better compression, and lower bitrates sound pretty good on like a phone or midpriced computer speakers. If you want higher bitrates for hifi you may as well go lossless.
>FLAC, there. I said it.

bs, my music directory is 122gb do you really think it will be enough for my lifetime? I think think so.

Is all that music lossy or loseless? I am super curious.

This
>>55526841
Even MP3s awith a bitrate of 320 aounds like I am listening to music through a fucking AM radio. I want this mp3 meme to die off already. Fucking dumb fuck normals are holding us back from good audio quality.
