| If you record the output of a 12:1 MP3 file to MD at 5:1, the result will be
| worse than 12:1, but it won't be as bad as 60:1. Try it for yourself.
And may in fact be undetectable, depending on the MP3 encoder and decoder
used.
| By the same token, re-ATRACking an MD track results in something a little
| worse than 5:1, but not in 25:1.
IIRC it takes five analog generations before degradation becomes noticeable,
and ten or more before audio quality is reduced below acceptable levels (ie,
audio casette).
