Downloaded an album online in mp3 , wondering if higher quality can be got from buying and ripping the expensive used CD online (lemmy.world)

ffprobe of ffmpeg fame say:

bitrate: 256kb/s
Stream: #0:0: Audio: mp3 (mp3float), 44100 Hz, stereo, fltp, 256 kb/s

Is it better to buy the CD and rip or or is that about as good as it gon' get? Should I quit while I'm ahead

Its literally nowhere else online in a hq format besides YouTube (lq) and various random blogs/sites

No FLACs :( until I change that
