> Why would I want to switch to a low quality audio codec when I have a perfectly good microphone in the laptop? Answer: I don't want to. Never.
Because you're in a noisy or semi-noisy environment.
In that case, even a low-quality codec for a microphone next to your head head will be vastly clearer than high-quality audio from a microphone several feet away from you.
If you're in a quiet room, though, yes the Mac microphone will be better.
