No but as always you want to try to exploit the full value of what you buy

but 192 is probably acceptable but lower then that is in questionable territory

Is it just me or does it also depend on how the song was recorded in the first place? I mean, I've got a few 128kbps which really don't sound awful on my IE8s and others which are painful to hear.

And then again, there are some pretty poorly recorded 320 kbps songs too.
