Opus Interactive Audio Codec v1.1.3 released
Opus has always been better than MP3. Another big benefit of Opus over AAC and MP3 is that Opus is royalty-free for all uses whereas AAC and MP3 require the payment of patent licensing fees.

The last of the US patents covering MP3 should expire next year.
