I am currently conducting a test on how different the audio quality losses of different formats sound like.

Several YouTube video makers have done it with YouTube's audio+video compression, but my aim is to find out how different the compression losses after e.g. 20 passes sound like.

Example command:

format=wma  
while [ $pass -lt 20 ]
  do ffmpeg -i music.pass$pass.$format music.pass$(( pass + 1 )).$format
  pass=$((pass+1))
done
