How much more battery do VBR mp3's use up?

[charltonfan1]

In comparison with say CBR 192kbps mp3's what percentage extra battery would an ipod use up playing an album encoded with VBR instead?

Just wondering if its worth the gain in quality against the loss in battery life

Looking for rough estimations here guys thanks

cheers guys. I was hoping you would say that.

The 1st half of my CD collection i ripped at either 128 or 192kbps bit since i went for VBR which averages at around 200kbps and i was worried that this would rinse my ipod battery lfe
