  • I get all my music in FLAC, spend extra when I need to buy them.

    But ‘noticeably better audio quality’ needs its own explanation.

    If you have under $200 headphones, 320b MP3 will most likely suffice. There are many aspects like type of music, volume, sound chip, amplifiers, and of course actual quality of the MP3 (some recode 256 or 128 into 320 to make it look better).

    But unless you have quality headphones and enjoy your music without distractions, MP3s will serve just as well.

    Of course, once you get to listen to music in uncompressed quality alone with good hardware - you can’t go back. And it’s an expensive hobby.
