if i can, then yes. tho i wont go the "extra mile" (=paying) just to get a higher quality file. ripping my stuff straight from youtube is enough for me

Same. I can hear the difference between lossless and YT when I listen to it side by side, I even hear the difference between 128kbps mp3 and lossless, if the mix is good. Of course, that is with good headphones.

But if I play sound through my lo-fi system at home, then no, I can't really tell.
