  240 VBR was the sweet spot when drive space was expensive. Now I use flac lossless for things I care about.

    192kbps variable mp3 on my 64MB mp3 player…

  Might be a controversial opinion but I don’t think there’s a discernible difference between 320kbps mp3s and FLACs, and one of them takes up a fraction of the storage space. I have a pair of “audiophile” headphones and I can’t tell between them at all.

    Yes. People forget that regardless of the technical differences between them ultimately it is your ears that have to listen to them and I doubt the average person can really tell the difference.
