I will not pay for mp3 files. I may buy online if I can get flac files but they hard to find.
My main source for online music is usenet with the occasional excursion into BitTorrent. I just treat the internet as the world's largest juke box.
On the other hand my CD collection is up to about 950 discs and still growing. I've ripped all my discs to flac images and then made VBR mp3 for portable use.
There is an audible difference between uncompressed CD audio and mp3 even at 320kb. If you connect an mp3 player to a good stereo and compare with the original source the difference is notable. Mp3 rips are good enough but not as good as uncompressed audio.
