I used to compress @ 224 or 256 kbps with bladeenc, but now that I've been using lame instead, I encode at 128 kbps and end up with files that are quite a bit smaller and sound just as good. Lame also allows for variable rate encoding which for many songs lets me drop the bitrate down to 112 kbps and still maintain the same audio quality.
