Well, that should be self evident but if you haven't got a
calculator handy:

: bjm at moktoo ; for rate in 384 256 192
> do
> echo "${rate}kbps = $(($rate * 1024 / 8 * 60 * 60 / 1024 / 1024))MB per hour"
> done
384kbps = 168MB per hour
256kbps = 112MB per hour
192kbps = 84MB per hour

The other question is how much perceptible difference does
it make in the sound. For talking heads, probably none. For
the intro to Star Wars in Dolby Surround, maybe some.
