I've seen worse. The mono tracks on some Funimation DVDs are only 96 kbps.

They used 96kps on the extras for the 007 SE DVD's a decade ago. It makes the commentaries sound like AM radio.

96kbps is Dolby's recommended data rate for DD1.0, so it should sound transparent to most people. I used this bitrate for the mono mix on my Star Wars Pwnage Edition disc, and I certainly couldn't ABX it.

What I'm saying is that those commentaries probably sounded like AM radio before encoding...
