Hear hear.  Bladeenc is also extremely slow compared to other, better
encoders.  My personal favorite is Gogo; however, checking the developer's
page, he seems to have stopped work on it.  Oh well, you can grab a copy
of the latest version I have at http://munge.net/gogo236.tar.bz2 .  Very
fast, and a nice psychoacoustic model to boot.
