Sorry for the Off Topic post, but are there any listening tests which support this statement? Using standard bitrates (96 kbps per channel) and above can you really hear a difference between the latest Aften and FFmpeg?

The reason I ask is that my Normalizing Plugin for AVStoDVD uses Aften exclusively for the final encode. Would it be worth the time and effort to switch from Aften to FFmpeg for the final encode from WAV to AC3?
