I use iTunes for my encoding btw.

I can still listen to 128, but it's noticably different for me. 192 sounds good enough to me, it's not quite wav or vinyl quality but it's decent, and I don't want to take up any more space on my disk.

Ever thought of 160 kbps? That's the point when I usually (through both speakers and headphones) don't hear any irritating decrease in quality.

i meant i have 1 gb RAM and a 500 MB hard drive.
:nervous: :nervous:

i was just kidding. i choose either VBR or 192. i would do 256 in the extreme circumstances.

muhkuh
128 kbit/sec are acceptable with a decent VBR encoder

128 is fine for me
TranceXtasy
192 kbps is what most of my tracks are at.

LAME VBR 128-320 --alt-preset-standard is the official encoding method in the scene.

chavs
128 it's ok with my ty speakers, they sound all the same with mp3 over 128 kbps

VBR isn't working with Trance. You probably save only 0.1 or 0.2 MB at the most because the fact that Trance constantly occupies the high shelf with the hi-hats and crashes.
It would work well with oldies, though:D
