Well, in 2013 you'd rather port the single precision code to run on GPUs;-)

But really, is there any hint that double precision would help anything
with MP3 quality? Even for studio productions, I only see 32 bit float PCM
as top-notch format. Would using double precision for intermediate
calculations really make any difference on a resulting bitstream? I'm
not even talking about audible differences.


Alrighty then,

Thomas
