I agree with you Manu, as of about two year ago I stoped buying 320K MP3's and moved over to Wav's, I also only buy CD albums and vinyl records. However, if I'm forced to I have had to buy a mp3 album from Amazon as they were the only person providing that album at a price that was within my ballpark, this was a dub album that was rather obscure and unavailible on Discogs as a CD or at the time even as a vinyl release. So occasionally you have to go with what you can get. The actual quality of the MP3 when I am playing it back has been OK, but that may be becuase the actual master was recorded very well.
