If you are using the secret rabbit code SINC based (or any other
"correct" resampler) to do the resampling, then the only advantage
of 88k2 is that it uses slight less disk space.

When using crappy resamplers (ie linear resamplers, including the
one in secret rabbit code), they may be slightly less bad at doing
88k2 -> 44k1 than 96k -> 44k1.

HTH,
Erik
