[QUOTE="brad1011a, post: 3204499, member: 575111"] I've read some interesting articles over at MaximumPC about this, and they did many subjective tests using good headphones. No one was able to consistently distinguish between 256K VBR MP3's and the original CD. On some tracks where overtones can be heard the best encoder is 'WMA lossless' vs. iTunes lossless, and high bitrate MP3's, but it isn't widely supported. I use 320K max. VBR MP3's, and they sound great. In a car it would be difficult to tell anyway. Just use a good encoder like Exact Audio Copy (free). And yes downloaded ones are almost always crap. [/QUOTE]
