What format are most people using, and why?


Are most people just using WAV or another lossless format like FLAC?

I have personally used FLAC because of its ability to store metadata like cd and track name info, file sizes being ~25% smaller than WAV, ability to be streamed, and obviously the lossless aspect.

I am thinking about re-encoding my collection and was wondering what other people are using.

Thanks.

Supposedly dbpoweramp can do this through a plugin - I would search the software support forums. I believe this software allows batch conversion and tag preservations as well.

There is also a component for Foobar2000, however its stability is questionable.
