i'm considering ripping everything again, esp. since i'm getting some new balla headphones, just wondering if it's worth the effort?
I haven't done extensive testing, but I can tell a difference between stuff ripped at 128kbps and 192kbps. We did it in lossless because a) my friends are audio geeks, b) memory was cheap enough (and much cheaper now even), c) we didn't want to ever do it again. Do some tests ripping in different formats/bit rates and see what you think. I'd be curious to hear.
