Enough: better than mp3 at 96, usually better than mp3 at 128.

As long as you resample it to 44100. For some reason 48000 encoded with
vorbis sounds much worse than this same file resampled to 44100.

I'm very pleased with vorbis sound for movies. I sometimes encode movies
with -q1 (~80kbps) main track and -q-1 (~48kbps) track with director's
comments which still sounds great. (better than most dvdrips with mp3
sound).
