Question MP3 Over 320 kbs

I'm seeing a lot of MP3 mixes that are offering 400 - 500 kbs tagged as MP3 of late.

It's obvious they are renaming the file, but I don't know what is the original source.





Anyone knows what format it is?

I believe 320 kbps is the highest bitrate an MP3 can come in. Perhaps it's another format or just mislabel. Not sure on the format..sorry. MP4 perhaps??

Its not MP4

I'm using Windows Media Player (An Old Version) for reference and it recognizes the file, but, it states format unknown.

It is possible that you can do higher that 320 with Lame I think, I know that I have heard of some scene group doing it with the latest version of lame

Did you download the file?

The Audio Codec states Unknown in Windows Media Player.
So it's not MP3.

The Highest MP3 offers is 320 Kbs. The file I uploaded is
470 kbs.

I think I remember hearing this in the production forum.
Its pretty pointless if you ask me.
If you think mp3 isnt high enough quality then go uncompressed.
Having mp3 at higher than 320 is just problematic.

Yes I've dled it, it says that its a 213kbps vbr. When you have a vbr mp3 some players get confused and say different compression rates. Yeah, I personally like a vbr mp3 over a cbr mp3 at 320 any day.

What's the point then, you might as well just use a FLAC file.
