MP3 conversion rate suggestions

I stand by my original post, of just sticking with v0 or 320. V0 will save you more storage space of the 2, while some believe it is the best sounding as well. Ymmv

To sufentanil, I respect your need for storage concerns. I on the other hand would much rather have less music on a device at a higher bitrate than vice-versa.

For that you should look into various sites for those who have compared.I only want on computer 320 or FLAC but have heard that a 192/256 VBR is hard to distinguish on a average stereo let alone a portable.

Check out mediacoder audio edition. Free. Transcodes straight from flac to mp3. Very easy to use. It's so easy to use that you can basically decide spur of the moment what you want to convert, do it quickly, and put the mp3s whereever you need them. I would suggest something in the range of 192 VBR.

The magic flac to mp3 free converter is great, i use it to convert that kind of files. Magic FLAC to MP3 Converter allows you to convert FLAC files (Free lossless audio codec) (.flac , .fla, .ogg) to MP3 and WMA, WAV.
