Comment on Why do I think music sounds better on my old MP3 player?

  Of course, but shouldn’t transferring them into MP3 form still hurt the quality? It’s such a tiny format. Apparently not that much.

    It does technically hurt the quality, but 320 kbps mp3s are largely indistinguishable from lossless to most people.

    On a side note, why mp3 instead of a lossless format?

      Oh, alright! Makes sense.

      I “chose” MP3 because I had my old MP3 Walkman around and wanted to quickly test if I could have a few songs on that stick. Then the test grew into a bigger project and now I’m here with a about 20 hours of MP3 form music. So no real reason, just a quick, thoughtless decision while goofing around. :D
