Media Player 11 - Vista - Lower Bitrate?

Hi everyone...
My car stereo plays MP3s. Useful instead of having loads of precious CDs in the glove box! When ripping my CDs using Media Player 11 for the car, the lowest bitrate I can select is 128kbs. I can convert these afterwards to a lower bitrate and to be honest with all the road/car noise I can barely notice the difference in quality.
So my question is, how can I get Media Player to accpet a lower bitrate than 128 to save me having to convert afterwards. Do I need a new/other Codec?
Thank you in advance for any replies.

It's an excellent program and will give you more control than Media Player. It will allow you to rip CDs at varying bitrates, as low as 16kbs if you're daft enough!
I would recommend unticking the add-ons when you install it though.It's my problem, it's my problem
If I feel the need to hide
And it's my problem if I have no friends
And feel I want to die0
