Yeah. All insignificant differences as far as listening pleasure are concerned.

unless it's Exhile - (come on) Bounce, that's the only track I could hear a difference between 128 and 192kb/s. sadly it was only sold on imodownload so no where to purchase it. To make it worse, my source is a transcoded mp3 (from imodownload's first format in DRM protected WMA, 192kb to 224kb VBR MP3)

The storage space and internet speeds are such that selling mp3's is unacceptable these days.

Maybe for you, but it takes an hour for me to download a Wav and my iPod is almost full even with MP3s.

That is a separate issue that is specific to you though. You can convert to mp3 if it's a problem. The option can always be there to download mp3 versions as well as well. The point is wave files shouldn't cost more.

I would go to your local starbucks and download music from there. or your local anything with free wi-fi. It would be too tedious to do it all at home with such a terrible connection.
