mp3's DO NOT have near CD quality audio. Its a very lossy compression.CD's>my Ipod?
Do the research yourself when tapes>CD's audio quality was much better when CD's>mp3's. An A/B comparison w/ CD's to mp3's on a good audio system will prove it to yourself. Im not mp3 bashing just enligtening those who want the truth.

yes, i agree, but you can up the bit rate to get cd quality, at least damn near it, which of course takes up more storage. so you can get much larger file sizes, with good quality. compare an ipod, to a stack of 800 or so cds. yes, everything is a trade off, and i'll definantly lose quality, to carry all my music with me wherever i go. i dont miss lugging around a huge cd case from car to house to wherever. :-)
edit: also, wmv or aac file formats are better than the mp3 format. just enlightening you. :-)

LAME Encoded MP3's at 320 Kbps bit rates sound very good. However if you want CD quality music you have to go lossless and each song can run around 50-60 megabytes in size.
Many Audiophiles who use the LAME MP3 Codec will encode their music between 196 kbps and 320 kbps, and are quite happy with it.
