Audacity Help!

[LedZep]

Hi everyone!!

 

I ripped a 2 hour concert audio from a DVD to an MP3 file using the highest possible bitrate of 320. (DVDFab software). It is ONE giant file containing the ENTIRE concert.

 

I now want to use Audacity to cut up the file into the numerous concert tracks. So in other words .... I want to have one file for each song to play in I-tunes.

 

Here is my question -

 

... Knowing that the file I am working with in Audacity is 320 MP3 bitrate.. Which option do I choose when I "export" each song file I create in Audacity to ensure I maintain the highest possible audio quality? Here are the options.... (please see attached file which is a screen shot of the Audacity Export Options)

 

(My quick thought was NOT to use MP3 because the file is already an MP3 file and I don't want to compress an already compressed file... thereby further degrading the audio quality.) But not sure so that is why I am asking.

 

Thanks!
