Bitrate estimates for the upcoming 128 kbps test

My table is updated:

Simple txt file:

WMA_VBR50 is not suitable for ~130 kbps encoding with classical music. The average bitrate I get is 89,66 kbps! Two files only (on 150) are over the 120 kbps line.


NB: I verified all other encodings. There are not other mistakes in the table.

Alright I'm not going to make a bitrate table, because it would be a huge table (4260 tracks).  The mean average bitrate for Nero 4.2.1.0 Internet Profile High Quality is 132kbps.
