Keep in mind that the original has been reduced in size to about 1/10th of the original size by throwing out information. Or are you saying that's the minimum quality worthy of burning to a cd? For that point I would agree. 
There's certainly not enough people who are encoding at the higher bit rates. Personally I encode at 192 & perhaps 20-25% of time at 320 kbps. Reference: Album/song sizes & also 320 Please!!! | Yes, very good point LotR. But 128 is the 'default/standard' for encoding, therefore most people never realize there are more options and simply hit convert!
What would be great is if we could get more people to convert to at least 192 using CBR (constant bit rate) encoding. This would really help. Although, larger file sizes....always the drawback! |
