I downloaded from Philly's upload while waiting for my CD to arrive and those seem to be 320 Kbps rips:

That said, even at this rate you can hear distortions compared to the CD. And the
Iryu 1 OST 256 Kbps rips have big time distortions; mp3 is just crap when it comes to music with a big dynamic range (comparisons done via a CD created w/ the mp3 files vs the real one, using a Marantz DR17 CD player/recorder, Musical Fidelity X-Can headphone amp and a Sennheiser HD 650 headphone; and also listening directly to the mp3 files on the computer).
Thx to thtl, I'd a chance to listen to the
Abarenbo Mama OST. May be because I stopped watching after ep. 3, the music while fine IMO still can't really be compared to the
Galileo OST, which I like more and more upon repeated listenings. It's a pity that they didn't include all the music from the drama else it would probably rank up there w/ the Iryu 1 OST in my books.
