By audio asylum standards, you have gotten some remarkably temperate responses here. This is a very subjective hobby, listening to music, and if you enjoy what you hear, then you are not crazy. All else being equal, yes, mp3 (or any lossy format) will, at some point, sound audibly "worse" than either a higher rate, or a pure PCM or God forbid, a poppy LP. Where that boundary lies is up to you. At least some things can show up in blind testing. While I haven't done this, I am sure most humans will have no trouble discerning a 64K MP3 vs. a PCM of most types of music. However, based on my listening, and what I read, the same test would be much harder at 320K, 192K, or even 128K.
