why would you want to encode any mp3's at 48Khz?

It could've been a live recorded on DAT? *shrug*

To avoid downsampling from dvds.

I demand a 10 - why do you mark me down by 0.5? The answer was correct, was it not?

No idea, I just checked the options in CoolEdit Pro.

That's only relevant for DVD and possibly DAT (and other professional formats), but why worry about sample rate conversion anyway? It's done all the time in a pro environment, and I'd suspect any tiny degradation that may happen in good software would be pretty insignificant compared to the mp3 emcoding itself.

usage: lame [options] <infile> [outfile]

<infile> and/or <outfile> can be "-", which means stdin/stdout.

Try:

Upsampling will not get you jack, but avoiding downsampling is a Good Thing. IMO, downsampling hurts the sound significantly.
