I care because I can guarentee that if we sat down together in the same room and played your faveroite track, first from a purchased CD, and then from an mp3 (say, 192kbps) it would be fairly obvious how degrading the sound of mp3s are. And if not, the differences could be explained, and then you may not be able to stand listening to mp3s again.

The most perfect environment most listen to music in is their cars. So maybe try ripping a faveroite track as a .wav file and then as a 192kbps mp3 into your ipod and give it a listen. The idea being that you will understand the value of purchasing the CD, as .wav file are much too large to transmit over the internet.
