Download your files in FLAC format. Its the highest quality but also takes up a lot more memory than 320kpbs. Don't waste your time with anything below 320.

My devices are all apple. So to make it as seamless as possible everything is either iTunes or CDs to a laptop (PC, not Mac) which has iTunes to transfer the music.
Do not know the standard Kbps those are or how to upgrade them. I understand it will eat up space on my device.

This is what I was going to suggest. Full Lossless Audio Codec files take the song and rip it from the CD with no compression. They are fricking huge files.
I rip all my stuff in both FLAC and 320 kbps MP3s. I really can't tell the difference in most instances, and the MP3s are a lot smaller file than the FLAC. A real freaked out audiophile with the ne plus ultra D/A converter might tell the difference better than I, but I'm kinda picky and find 320 MP3s to be just fine in most instances. And as Brosef said, don't bother with any MP3s less than 320. Storage is so plentiful and cheap today it makes no sense to do so.
