I'd like a nicer system, but I just don't have the money to afford it right now. I'd rather have stuff to listen to than a beautiful system and one pristine recording to listen to. I keep my files (ideally; this is not always possible) at 256kbps or higher, usually AAC, but I am considering making the transition to lossless. as for the recording quality, it really depends on the music. Some benefits from cleaner recording, some benefits from having some grit to it. barring really low budget basement recordings or purposely raw black metal, recordings will always be far cleaner than anything that you'd hear live anyway, so I don't make a huge deal out of it.</blockquote>
