With the exception of the entertainment district, it looks like one too.

I mean offer them - but the source recording should be high so the shit sounds good to those that want it to

* 32 kbit/s – MW (AM) quality
* 96 kbit/s – FM quality - This is questionable since FM broadcast is transmitted in analog 30 Hz-15khz. Similarly one cannot compare directly an LP record to CD using kbit/s.
* 100–160 kbit/s – Standard Bitrate quality; difference can sometimes be obvious (e.g. lack of low frequency quality and high frequency "swashy" effects)[citation needed]
* 192 kbits/s is the highest level supported by most MP3 encoders when ripping from a Compact Disc.
* 224–320 kbit/s – VBR to highest MP3 quality.

Keep in mind they may be recording the show at a higher bitrate than they are broadcasting it over the internet.

and aiff lossless is the best IMO

some ive heard though.
