whats the difference between opus and 320 mp3?
The point is 140kbps opus is almost identical to 320kbps mp3 for human so it saves over 50% size for the same quality. Also it’s a royalty free format.
neat. Though now i wish my ipod supported opus (besides rockbox) but thats much nicer to know!
opus is higher quality at a much lower bitrate, meaning you can definitely store more songs in the opus format than in 320 mp3. opus can be constant bit rate or variable bit rate, whichever you prefer at encode time
@neo I thought opus was voice optimized?
It is, but it’s not the only thing opus is optimized for
