The lossiness of ATRAC is not orthogonal to the lossiness of MP3 encoding.
If a song was on a CD but you have it as a 10:1 .mp3 file, and you play the
.mp3 file as input to MD, the resulting MD track is 1/5, not 1/50, the size
of the original CD track.

Exactly.

I have a few discs of light jazz that I've downloaded from MP3.COM. All of the
material on MP3.COM seems to be recorded
at 128Kbps. Some of the files are encoded better than others, but even the best seem
to have a slightly edgy quality to the
treble. I find the worst encoded files hard

No, I'm saying that a cumulative effect does exist, but it is not as great as
what you'll expect if you multiply compression ratios. Putting audio through
10:1 MP3

worse than the MP3 file, but it would not be
