Just got an iTouch...

I just got an iTouch and started importing my CD library onto my MacBook as AIFF. I will be using my iTouch when traveling, in the office through a Tivoli PAL and at home trough a Tivoli Model One Table Radio. I will continue to play CDs through my Aura Note, and maybe connect my MacBook on the rare occasion - more likely just to listen to potential purchases through Amazon/iTunes or live performances on XPN.

My question is, is it overkill to import/store these as AIFF if my main goal is to listen through my iPod?

I just started and already have 60G worth of AIFF files, I'll have 1T+ before they are all loaded and I hate the idea of getting into external hard drives and back up hard drives for this much storage. Am I getting ahead of myself if my only goal is to listen via iPod???

ejlif is right. On my iPod I can definitely tell the difference between apple lossless and mp3. I listen thru Grado SR-125's at home thru a headphone amp or iGrado headphones for the gym.

I do not find that it's too difficult or time consuming to change the music on the iPod since I only have an 8Gb touch. Usually, I create a playlist with Genius and have it select songs for me.
