Nope. The problem with digital MP3 is not the sample rate, its the
digital compression that is applied.

Its not lossless.



Well people don't knowwhat MP3 stands for.
Its MPEG layer 3 audio.
It was always lossy and designed to fit videos onto CDs and DVDs not for
hifi.
They soon dropped it when bluray arrived and went for master audio which
is uncompressed.
