Of course, it's a matter of opinion, but also about in what way the mp3 player is being used. If you use it mostly in a noisy environment, like on the bus or in the subway, or if you use it mainly connected to your super-hi-fi equipment at home, there are different demands on the sound quality. Most of the times, in the way I use my phone as mp3 player, 128 kbps is enough for me.

usually 128 kbps is good for me, but I only have a 1GB mem stick on my phone and i usually listen to it when travelling for long hours, at 128kbps my k750 will run out of juice in 2 hours, but with 80-90, i could go for 4 hours, possibly...

anything lower than 128kbps is not acceptable. on the hand, higher bitrate requires more card space. so here is my question, anyone here ever tried using a M2 4gb card in their phones? in my W660i, currently using a 2gb card. wanna use a 4gb card so that can still have the same number of songs but on a higher bitrate. anyone here can help?

anything lower than 128 would jeopardize your Walkman-listening experience...

i use Audiograbber and Audacity for compression.

yeah baby, Walkman rocks!

cheers!

"Save battery with mediocre quality mp3". What an amazingly interesting idea! Then you can also save money by buying a mediocre phone and mediocre earphones! And memory sticks with mediocre capacity! After buying all this mediocre hardware, then what music? Why not Barry Manilow!
