just wondering if i rerip a mp3 from 192kbs to 192kbs will there be loss of quality or does it take alot of rips to degrade the quality. i could have sworn i saw a post that said it will take alot of reripping the same file to degrade the sound quality. or does it just take one time.

Every re-encoding stepp will degrade quality. Some artifacts like e.g. pre-echo (= smeared transients) will become more and more noticable/annoying, others will become audible after the (x)th re-encoding step while after the (x-1)th step there's no problem in the same place.
If you're really interested in this, you might want to find out yourself. A good recource is http://www.ff123.net/ , especially the links "ABC/HR Audio Comparison Tool", "Artifact Training Page", "Test for Pre-Echo using Castanets" and the following "Test using ..." links.
