Oh... sorry, I didn't want to generalize, I was just saying what is true for me, not for everyone. Sorry if you got me wrong. Personally, I'd exchanged aacplus for nero, because of vbr in PS, so I tought it's better. So, in some of my music conversions, I've noticed something. You were talking about proofs. Well, I have one.

Here http://www.mytempdir.com/1146896 or
here http://www.sendspace.com/file/sdl4t1
there's some conversions of an original mp3 at 192kbps Stereo.

Nero Digital (nd): ABR32kbps, VBR16,32,45kbps
aacplus (ap): CBR16,24,32,40kbps.

First, compare low bitrates. Sound in nd at 16kbps is awful, I could clearly perceive higher quality in ap, see what you think. Even ap 24kbps sound looks better than nd's VBR32kbps. At ~45kbps, nd didn't get ap32kbps sound quality (I could say ap24kbps is better). What you think?

I know I couldn't think something like that just for one test only, but I prefer don't risk.
