Re: not exactly 128kbit

From their FAQ
quote:
Skype automatically selects the best codec depending on the connection between yourself and the person you are calling. On average, Skype uses between 3-16 kilobytes/sec – depending on bandwidth available for other party, network conditions in between, callers CPUs, etc.
Maybe for your connection it decided not to be so hi-IQ

16 kb/sec is 128kbit, near enough.

well, sound quality was as good as i ever heard at home or at work..however i measured bandwidth only from home.

but i haven't found any mention of 128kbit or any other bitrate it uses..
