Are 320 kbps MP3 downloads of Sapien's Videos just as effective/potent as the original YouTube videos?

The question is in the title. Basically, I download sapien medicine’s videos and use a third party website to convert them into MP3 files for a playlist that I listen to at night. Will the downloads work as good as the youtube videos?

Short answer, probably not. Long answer, depends on the audio, the mp3 audio format compresses the audios, so if you are not the creator, you won’t know how to encode the audio so there’s no loss in quality. The only way that may work is using a lossless audio format, however that’s not guaranteed either. I’d rather recommend you to just support SapienMed on Patreon and download the audios from there, it provides a lot of value for only 5 USD, while helping what I consider one of the greatest creators ever.
