MP3 sounds like crap compared to Vorbis, and you REALLY hear it on a nice car system. I burned the new limp bizkit album to CD from 160kbps mp3's, and it sounded terrible at high volume. I just bought the same CD and it doesn't have any of the distortion or crap in it at the same volume. I haven't tried encoding to Vorbis and back to CD yet, but with studio headphones, you can really hear the difference in Vorbis compared to MP3. Hrm, with Ricochet, I could run a webserver from my car that was hooked to a GPS and people could see on the webpage where my car is at all times. Maybe that's not such a good idea after all...
