After a bitr of testing a few years ago I decided to encode all my music for iPod to 320k AAC.
Would have been happy to stick with AIF if not for the 32mb buffer problem.
Anyways, at 320k, sound quality is close enough to original for me to be OK with, but there's definitely a difference.
It is just plain false for Apple to claim the quality is "indistinguishable" from original at 256k.
I used to expect better . . .
