[mp3 encoding] 8-bit?!

Does anyone know of any way of encoding mp3s in 8bit? the
lowest I could get from lame was 1kbit, and that's no
good... I'm just wondering how regular music would sound in
8bit...

Soundforge has a Bitrate converter...that should do the
trick.

Use your favourite soundeditor and resample in 8bits?

yeah, that's what I got too, and that leads me to think that
it isn't really 8bit conversion... oh, well...

because 8 bits sounds like it's really little, and it also
makes me think of that old "conan the barbarian" game for pc
where they had some 8bit voices and it sounded like shit..
distorted and.. I don't know.. it sounded 8bit as in 8bit
music... like this one time I managed to play music through
a pc-speaker.. sounded completely crap!
