How do I know if iTunes files are all 'lossless'?

Hey gang, bear with me as I know just enough about computers to 'be dangerous' -- my Q., I have hundreds of songs on computer in iTunes and also in my iPod Classic. I'm aware that songs bought through iTunes are MP3 only, but most of the CD's I downloaded over the years SHOULD be as 'lossless'.

How do I find out which files/songs/albums are 'lossless' vs. compressed MP3?

Thanks to any and all.

Denf...

I ripped 650 CD's, only to find out I was using the wrong settings....they are all at 128 bit.

Here's the good news, when I rip them the second time, all of the previously saved data is saved (how many times played, when first loaded, amended genre name, etc) and the bit rate is around 800-1000.

The sound is NOTICEABLY better.
