A 192kbps (lame --preset 192) mp3 or a high quality ogg (oggenc -q 9) will be fine for normal listening. People with nice hi-fis might appreciate higher bitrates or flac, but you can worry about that later. If you're using the myspace player because you don't have hosting, give me a shout and I can host a track or two for you.
