There's a tiny quality difference, but I doubt you'll notice it --
especially at 8 kb/s. The main difference is speed. If there's an FPU
present, then you'd need to check which version is the fastest. On x86,
float is typically faster than fixed-point, but on the newer ARMs (with
an FPU), fixed still tends to be faster.
