It is very true that there is a lot of sh*t songs out there. However, there is a solution. I use Illustrate's dMC audio input tool (free) to rip mp3's from a CD. I was lucky enough to find that there was another tool included with this software called dBpowerAMP Music converter. With the converter I converted an 80kbps song first to WAVE than back to mp3. Only now the bit rate is 320kbps. Mabey it not the best solution, but it's the best one I've found so far. You can use Google to find the software if you want it, it's all free. Good luck.
