Roberto Amorim announced in various web forums:

"I'd like to announce the start of a public 128kbps blind listening
test, comparing the winner of the AAC test (QuickTime) to Musepack,
Vorbis, WMA Pro and Lame MP3.

For those interested in participating, instructions are available at
the announcement page:

The test has closed and the results are now available he

The newer generation of codecs are all on a par with each other,
although still not transparent at 128 kbit/s. MP3 is showing its age.
