Having become quite the Napster and now Morpeus addict with a CD-R, I've been able to sample and compare playback quality of downloaded music files to purchased CD's at length, and with some practice you can get preeeeety dang close to what you can buy, sounds even better when you consider how much it costs :)
Even MP3's at 96 kbps are listenable and considerably smaller than 128 mbps files, so if you're bandwidth challenged don't be afraid of 96 or 112 kbps. When searching I always like to compare file sizes of the same song to avoid incomplete recordings, a major annoyance and happens all too frequently if you don't compare file sizes.
As far as software goes, I use an older version of Adaptic EZ CD Creator...newer ones will supposedly automatically convert the MP3's to a wave file (I couldn't quite pry the extra 100 bucks outta my wallet to get the Sony that played MP3's when I got my car stereo:)
