Is it possible that some of these Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin tracks
were encoded at very high bitrates (e.g. 256kbps, 320kbps)? A
quality-conscious fan of those bands would probably use a very high
bitrate for their music. For use on your player, you can get away with
128kbps. There is a variety of tools out there that you can use to make
128kbps copies of larger MP3s.
