I used to buy my own beans, grind them, and brew my coffee in a French press. However, my SO doesn't want to wait 30 minutes for a fresh cup of coffee, so we switched back to grounds this year and the difference is really not all that noticeable.

I prefer ground, but grocery store bought beans is fine. But that difference from pre-ground is very noticeable, to me.

I also don't care if my MP3's are 128kbit vs 320kbit.

And if you enjoy it (coffee and the mp3's) Excellent!!

Just don't try telling me _I_ don't taste or hear a difference. :)
