OK, here's the "dilemma:" I want a ton of SPC files that I want to convert to MP3; I already know how to do that. My question is, though, what's the lowest bitrate I could encode them in? Being that these are such small files to begin with, shouldn't I be able to convert them to MP3's with very low bit rate but still maintain very, very similar quality to higher bitrates?
I'm only talking about SNES / Genesis / NES music... I know that if I tried to rip CD audio it would sound terrible at low levels, but would the difference in these old, old school formats be basically negligible?
When I encoded at a bitrate of 220 or whatever, one song took up like four times as much as the ENTIRE FF3 soundtrack!
Thanks for the help / explanations.
