How do you incode your digital media?


Looking at my options here. Has anyone experienced any problems with the "lossless" forms of media storage? Any differences in fidelity that only us audiophiles may be bothered by? I am looking to incode everything in Apple Lossless, as it seems to be the most recognized and should integrate with a Squeezebox 3 nicely.

Let me know if you have any thoughts!

If you are planning to use the Squeezebox wirelessly, lossless may present some problems. At least that has been my experience. I use Apple Lossless and WiFi to the SB appears to require too much bandwidth. Despite buffering, I get annoying interruptions. Wired works flawlessly. However, I'm just guessing that I'd have better performance with lossy compression; I haven't tried it.
