Hello Lisa. Here's my opinion. I rip my CDs at 192 kbps, 44,100hz, stereo, mp3 version 1, that is Lame MP3 encoder version 1.30, engine 3.93 MMX, MPEG I. the reason I choose 192 kbps is because it's more faithful than the popular 128 for certain types of recordings, especially classical and other recordings where you might encounter very subtle differences from one part of a musical peace to another. To me, 192 Kbps just sounds the best without making the files too big. It's the minimum at which I rip any CDs to mp3. I hope this helps.
