Inappropriate?We use the Ogg Vorbis q5 codec which streams at approximately 160kb/s.
High bitrate is not available in the mobile phone. -
Inappropriate?Will "the enable higher bitrate" option be available later on the iphone/ mobile app ?4 Comments

currently there is now plans for 320 in the mobile version. -
I guess you meant to say "currently there are no plans", or are there now plans to add it?
-
My bad, there is no plans for 320 in the mobile. Sorry for being unclear.

How about just for the offline mode?

Inappropriate?I pay subscription for 320 bitrate but cannot get it on the iPhone. The ideal would be a choice of bitrates for use on the move and in the home when the iPhone is plugged into a HiFi system. People plug in iPhones into HiFi systems. The iPhone is now a central music device. There is less of a tendency to plug in a computer into a HiFi system.
Please bring 320 to the iPhone when the iPhone is in WiFi mode or if the song is downloaded via WiFi.1 Comment Add a comment

Plugging in an iPhone into a HiFi system is effectively limiting it's fidelity. It's like putting a Toyota engine into a Ferrari (unless you use a LOD for your iphone)
edit: but I'm not supposed to sit here and leave comments like that; I'm sure you are aware of it anyway. Sorry! -
Inappropriate?The limiting factor is the 160kbps not the iPhone :-)
Some people bypass the iPhones built in DAC e.g

Overkill for iTunes 256kbps perhaps, and would show up deficiencies in 320 depending on what other kit was in the chain.1 Comment Add a comment

What? 128kbps on my old iRiver e10 sounds better than 1411kbps on my iPod. The bitrate excuse is getting old.
It's a known fact that the 3.5mm jack on portable Apple products is craptastic. Of course, this does not apply to when using a LOD.
