SportaPro! For real though the PortaPro was how I convinced a die hard beats fan they weren't the best out there. He still likes beats but is now well aware they are overpriced. Long live cheap audio!

Quick l
Friend said I was an idiot for buying disks.  Said that youtube to mp3 (128kb/s...yup he dared to include that) is the good schitt.  
Quick lesson not meant to be rude. Optical media like CD and DVD is spelt Disc with a C. Magnetic media like HDD is Disk with a K. Anyway parent told me the same thing. I told them it didn't make sense to pay more money for a lower quality MP3 so that's why I buy discs. Guy alI bought a PortaPro for said youtube to MP3 (192kbps thank god)was better than CD. I explained the whole 1411.2kbps thing. In the end it doesn't matter to me. I like my CDs

Too much trauma from a recent hard-disk failure left me with the K imprinted forever in my mind.

the 320kbps file was more congested sounding and had less bass detail and less treble extension.
