Not to mention the jump in quality from the 128kbps audio you rip off YouTube (maybe 192kbps if you’re lucky) to the 320kbps mp3s you can off any self respecting torrent is MASSIVE (assuming non-shit source obviously). Heck, I can live with 320kbps. I barely notice the jump to lossless on my headphones/IEMs. 128kbps though, I’m not the most discerning listener but I can still hear the artifcats.
