I'd rather just stick with one. I think I'll be able to sort it all out. VUK - keep it at one for the time being. I'll get back to you.

Don't see much difference here either and I have good speakers (Altec Lansing ACS-56) so whatever floats your boat.. seeing that there's not much quality loss I would personnaly go with stereo but it's only my opinion

The mono one sounds better to me. Stereo isn't really required for Top Gear anyway.

Now that we're using BitTorrent most of the time, let's go for quality over filesize, to an extent.
