I read the archives, but assuming that one has the newest version of an iPod
(80 GB Video) and latest iTunes software (7.02), which one of these is the
best quality. All music is imported from CD's

MP3 - 320 kbps (stereo), VBR (highest quality setting), Sample rate (choice
of 44,100 or 48,000 kHz or Auto)

AAC - 256kbps (stereo), VBR, Sample rate (choice of 44,100 or 48,000 kHz or
Auto)

AAC - 320 kbps (stereo), No VBR, Sample rate (choice of 44,100 or 48,000
kHz, or Auto)

Note that with AAC, I cannot select 320 kbps with VBR using iTunes software.
