Drawbacks of mp3's... not as good a quality as a regular cd. Most people can't tell much if any difference. If your going for pure quality, stay away from mp3's. If you can't tell or don't care (like most people), mp3s' are awesome.
That's not necssarily true. If you encode your MP3s at a high enough bitrate, you'll be fine.
