Q What is VBR?

A VBR is "Variable Bit Rate". Some MP3 encoders support VBR. When enabled, the compressor will use a bit rate that will fit the actual passage. If it is a complex part, having much more variation in the sound, it will use a high bit rate. If there is less variation in sound, it will use a lower bit rate. Usually, the average bit rate will not be as high as a same-quality MP3 with CBR (Constant Bit Rate). However, there is shortcoming that it's hard to keep track of the actual position that may not be favorable when studying language.
