Depends on the bitrate. 128kb/s is quite noticeable; 320kb/s just isn't. I keep my music as default quality Ogg-Vorbis, and that's perfectly good enough (especially considering that a lot of the time I listen on a portable player while out walking). FLAC isn't really worth the extra space, as far as I'm concerned, and storing anything as WAV is just silly. -- Benjamin M.
