MP3s were the height of music in the sense that you could have as much music as you wanted, and you owned it. Downside is supposedly the quality of the audio isn’t as good as physical (idk I’m not an audiophile but that’s what they say) point is MP3s were goated and my only regret in life is I didn’t steal more music (there will never be enough music to steal)

The 128kbps mp3s of the kazaa/ipod era aren't as good as physical CDs, but the 320kbps mp3s that are common today are indistinguishable from CD or any other higher-quality recording.
