Bitrate
320, 256, 192 or 128 kbps?
All four options give you an audio file that plays everywhere. This is what the numbers usually stand for:
- 320 kbps
- The highest MP3 setting. The usual pick for music and for anything you listen to with good headphones.
- 256 kbps
- High quality that most listeners find hard to tell apart from 320 kbps on most songs.
- 192 kbps
- A solid middle setting for everyday listening on a phone, in the car or with earbuds.
- 128 kbps
- A common setting for speech, audiobooks and podcasts, where the voice matters more than fine detail.
