Lazy Friday question

   So, I am seriously contemplating getting rid of all my music and
   re-ripping them. Part of the reason for this is pure legality; if I do
   it, I can have all my music without fear that Iâm ripping someone off.
   The other part of it is that when I first started ripping CDs, I used
   128 as my bitrate, which I now realize is way too low...

   Which brings me to a question: Whatâs the best size/performance codec
   out there? I am currently burning Mp3s at a 320 bitrate, so size isnât
   the end-all be-all. But Iâd hate to think that I could be using
   another codec and getting better sound with a smaller file. So, letâs
   say I want no more than 3 megs/minute: whatâs the best codec to use?
