Aloha and Mahalo smile

I think I missed the original question and for that I apologize.

Well, in my case, when I got my first portable MP3 player back in like 1998 it was a Creative thing that looked like a portable CD player and I ripped everything to 320kps because that was the best quality I could get at the time. Then one day I decided to experiment with different bit rates and I found I didn't hear any difference via headphones with 192kps. Below that I felt I heard a difference- where 128kps was not absolutely terrible but it was unacceptable. Really terrible was 96kps and below. So I made 192kps my standard and its been that way ever since.

I know its not what you would want but I don't think the CE companies will push anything that adds more demand on bandwidth right now. They need to make the songs small enough not to overload the cellular networks.


Best regards,
