Audio file formats????? MP3, AAC, MP3pro???

[imported_alex007]

(i didnt know into what categorie MP3 and audio files fell so if im in the wrong section, sry!!)

ok i recently bought an IPOD nano. my first mp3 player. SO im new with the handling of music files

with that said...........

I have a library of abou 150 music files, there all .mp3. I recently discovered that the musicmatch jubebox can convert .mp3 to .mp3pro. But what is the advantage here? Will the quality of sound still be the same or will the less file size also sacrifice music quality?

Also, Apple/itunes gives me an option to convert my .mp3 files to AAC, i did a couple of test, and the file size didnt change, and i didnt hear a change quality so whats the purpose for converting files?

Also some of my mp3's are 128 kbps, others are 192 kbps, are the 192 kbps better quality in sound, is the extar size in file worth it?

Well, first we need to get you away from MusicMatch Jukebox.

I recently discovered that the musicmatch jubebox can convert .mp3 to .mp3pro.

Dont resample the same file. Leave it as mp3.

lso, Apple/itunes gives me an option to convert my .mp3 files to AAC, i did a couple of test, and the file size didnt change, and i didnt hear a change quality so whats the purpose for converting files?

Dont convert them, leave them in the format you ripped them in if its mp3.

Also some of my mp3's are 128 kbps, others are 192 kbps, are the 192 kbps better quality in sound, is the extar size in file worth it?

The higher the better the sound quality.
