88 mp3's on a CD-R....really good algorithm??

[Jollywg]

First off this may be the wrong area for this question, and if it is I apologize.

My boss handed me a CD-R with 88 mp3's with full quality. I was skeptical of course, but sure enough there were 88 songs that sounded wonderful. He said he got it from his brother-in-law and we were both wonder how in the world he did this?! I know that MP3's are a "lossy" format, but there must have been some algorithm or special software he used in order to achieve this.

Let me know if you have any ideas!
Thanks

a "lossy algorithm" doesn’t mean you can’t have wonderful sound (ok, not with 56K bitrate). that’s why they were made, after all.
