For voice podcasts, sound quality's important mostly where it contributes to comprehensibility, so with a well miked recording in an acoustically appropriate environment, low sampling rates are probably fine. Even so, clearer is bound to be easier to understand. It requires less interpretive work by the brain, which means more mental resources available to focus on meaning.
IMHO :o)
When the SKY-FM in my car has switched itself back to 128kbps, it just sounds wrong. Normal people can tell, Jim. But you need to make the little effort to compare. And then you need to steel yourself to thinking outside the box, to going beyond what "everybody knows". It can be uncomfortable to buck the crowd.You needn't address yourself to me personally, I rarely listen to music from my iPhone but rather to podcasts. The music is 128-bit mostly from earlier years, and 256-bit mostly from later years.
