Is 320kbps audio quality good?

For most general listening 320kbps is ideal. Of course, CD-quality audio that stretches to 1,411kbps will sound better. To determine the best audio bitrate you need to also assess your needs. If storage space is a concern high bitrate files will rapidly eat into your available space.

What is the highest audio quality?

The highest quality MP3 has a bitrate of 320kbps, whereas a 24-bit/192kHz file has a data rate of 9216kbps. Music CDs are 1411kbps.
