Actually, I haven't tried this, but I think too much compression makes the sound sound terrible. Either that or half of the crappy maps on b.net had someone sitting in front of their TV with a cruddy voice recorder.

I think the second choice is most likely.
If you want your sounds to sound good, just set them to 11.025khz 16-bit Mono for mulitplayer battle.net maps or 22.050khz 16-bit Mono for singleplayer maps. Then just import the sounds using the default setting (Highest, least space). The sounds should sound just fine and should not take up much space at all.
(BTW, if your friend says that lower compression = faster dl, do the exact OPPOSITE of what they say for any situation)
