What Is Your Favourite Audio Codec? - at first light - 01-08-2014
There are lots of codecs, some offer better options, and others offer better compatibility. What codec is your favourite, and why?
Personally I like AAC as it's one of the most compatible formats in terms of computer software and portable devices, and provides great quality. When I rip CD's I use ALAC instead, but only because I've never been able to find a convenient software to rip AAC at equivalent bitrates (though I would assume it's possible?).

I like mp3 320kbps as a compromise, although WAV/FLAC are better for quality. I cannot remember the difference between WAV and FLAC, but I think FLAC is better if my memory serves me correctly.
