Every analog cassette taper I ever met who was serious about collecting noted the gen of a tape from its original source(usually a dat). There are litteraly tens of thousands of deadheads with quality tape collections. Testimony to the fact that 1.4 million high quallity tapes could be disseminated in short order. A cassette recording of a master source sounds way better than 128 or 196 mp3. I would rate a 256 mp3 in the same category as a master or first gen tape. I haven't ever downloaded a 256mp3(only made em).
