Roster
gollark: It seems a reasonable thing to say, really.
gollark: If you don't mind non-lossless, Opus at 128kbps is apparently basically imperceptibly different, and you can put 8 times as much music on.
gollark: So I just rounded to 1000kbps arbitrarily.
gollark: CD-quality is 1411kbps raw, less with FLAC and such (lossless compression).
gollark: I know. I'm approximating.
