So I think its pretty safe to save space by converting your 256K MP3 files into 192K OGG files.
Just to make it clear, you never /ever/ want to encode from MP3 to OGG. Going to lossy -> lossy is bad.
Also, you might find that 160 Kbps is about right. Beware of higher bitrates; higher bitrates mean increased computational requirements. Some of the OGG portable players can't handle more than 192 Kbps.
