Bitrate: The number of kilobits per second of data in an audio file. The bitrate you choose when creating an MP3 file determines the size and quality of the resulting file. The highest commonly available bitrate is 320 kbps. A file created using this bitrate will have excellent quality, but will be fairly large. The standard bitrate for MP3s is 128 kbps. A file created using this bitrate will have good quality, and take up about 1 Mb per 1 minute of sound.
