Of course I couldn't let people download mp3s to compare them so I had to come up with another way. The flash player, despite limitations, was the best solution I could think of.

Satch, I think you have to remember that I'm interested in all sorts of results. If enough people answer, I could look at how many manage to separate the lowest BR file from the highest for example. I can also see whether or not people are able to separate smaller differences in bitrate at different overall qualities. By having several files rather than just two for example, the chance of getting it right by luck becomes smaller and that should also be a strength, not a weakness.

I did think this through and I think the results will be interesting .. if I ever get some. I think people are either not interested or they're worried about getting it wrong.

I'm aware different genres and so on will differ in how easy they are to separate. That's why this is round 1, I thought I'd split it up a bit.


I'll post the correct answers sometime when I have enough data!
