Haha sorry it just made me laugh  But don't take it wrong, I'm like that!
No, MP3 is more compacted than AIFF, AIFF takes much more space! It's almost like WAV. Let's say it's between MP3 and WAV

Fair enough pal :)
Might be worth getting iTunes or somethoing similair and ripping the tracks through that at 320?

Not unless the music files are ripped in .wav format, no. mp3 files are compressed music files, and by definition are lower quality than the original tracks on the cd. Unfortunately I don't know of any good ripping applications for mac. On my pc I use winamp for this purpose.
