mp3 is also a lossy format. so other formats are not lower quality. The thing is, converting from one format to another is also a lossy operation itself. So if you convert an ogg music to mp3, you may also end up with slightly worse file.<br>

On this note, can anybody point me to a piece of software which will<br>
mass-convert all my mp3s to ogg at the press of a button? It would need<br>
to preserve all my ID3 Tags etc. We're talking thousands of files /<br>
gigabytes of data here...<br>
