Well, MP3 file formats are lossy but it still retains good quality so it would probably be the best for saving for the net.

Is there anyway to change the quality of the mp3 or maybe lower the file size?

MP3 audio can be compressed with several different bit rates, providing a range of tradeoffs between data size and sound quality.
