I would recommend 256 as the minimum - if you can, 320 VBR. Not sure if Itunes will do that itself. You may need to get a separate MP3 ripper (LAME MP3 codec) and create your own - then import into itunes. Its worth the extra effort, IMHO.
MP3's playing in the M3 that were ripped at 128 sound metallic and a little tinny.
Higher bitrate ones sound great.

Thanks--it's obvious that higher is better, but want to find the best quality/size compromise. I know this will vary with different listeners.
