Does a higher bitrate mean better quality?

Generally yes — higher bitrates like 320kbps sound better but create larger files.

Can I increase the bitrate of a low-quality file?

You can re-encode to a higher bitrate, but it cannot add quality that was already lost in the original.

Is the bitrate changer free?

Yes, it is free with no account.
