It is not just the bit rate that determines the quality of an MP3.
It is also the quality of the source.
I went through and listened to a few MP3's the other day to see if I
could tell the difference between bit rate and I could not. But
there are some inherent problems with way the MP3's were created.
I listened to one that was encoded and it seemed to be missing some
parts of the sound (Again brilliance and clarity.)
Not all MP3 encoding software is created equally.

A high-bit-rate MP3 is just fine. No need to torture ourselves to reach
some imaginary standard of purity. If you need a machine to detect
something you can not hear it is really pointless. Music is intended for
the enjoyment of humans, not to please machines.
