I think you're confusing 44,100HZ with the actual Bitrate of a CD,
which is 1,411kbps - over 4x the quality of the best mp3s(320kbps).
44,100HZ is the total frequency response of the CD, not its bitrate.

Actually Redbook CD's frequency response is ~0-22,000 Hz --
a bandwidth of slightly less than half the 44,100Hz sample rate.

And not by accident. See: Nyquist frequency...
