Exactly and since what we're doing is skipping and not reading (and it's even
kind of commented in the file) i think it's better to have a single readBits
than 4 of them, i mean, if I look at the new code, i will wonder why there's 4
calls that do "nothing" when there could be only one that does the same amount
of "nothing".</pre>
