	* The [[Fraunhofer FDK AAC\|FDK AAC]] encoder included in Android.		* The [[Fraunhofer FDK AAC\|FDK AAC]] encoder included in Android.

	The licensed encoder included with Winamp is optimized for encoding music on desktop-class processors, while the Android version ~~was optimized for~~ low-delay encoding for real-time communication on embedded systems/mobile phones.		The licensed encoder included with Winamp is optimized for encoding music on desktop-class processors, while the Android version includes low-delay encoding for real-time communication on embedded systems/mobile phones.

	According to the July 2011 96kbps [[Hydrogenaudio Listening Tests\|listening tests]] by IgorC, Winamp's Fraunhofer encoder is better than [[Nero AAC]] and tied with the [[Apple AAC\|Apple encoder]] (then part of QuickTime) [http://listening-tests.hydrogenaud.io/igorc/aac-96-a/results.html].		According to the July 2011 96kbps [[Hydrogenaudio Listening Tests\|listening tests]] by IgorC, Winamp's Fraunhofer encoder is better than [[Nero AAC]] and tied with the [[Apple AAC\|Apple encoder]] (then part of QuickTime) [http://listening-tests.hydrogenaud.io/igorc/aac-96-a/results.html].
