AAC vs MP3

While AAC has some technical advantages over MP3, blind listening tests suggests there is no statistically significant advantage in quality: http://listening-tests.hydrogenaudio.org/sebastian/mf-128-1/results.htm I would suggest we remove "Depending on the AAC profile and the MP3 encoder, 96 kbit/s AAC can give nearly the same or better perceptual quality as 128 kbit/s MP3" -- while it may be technically true, its a worthless statement. Best in class encoders of each type cant be differentiated. Adamc83 (talk) 09:58, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Removed dubious section, since there was no objection or commentary. Adamc83 (talk) 07:54, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
