For me the real difference was the type of the file and the quality of the file rather than just lossless....
An excellent recording of a CD ripped in WAV sounds better than when ripped in FLAC.... however, when the recording is excellent and hi res and ripped in both, the differences are less pronounced for me.
As far as MP3, I could always hear the difference... I don't have any apple gear to use those formats...
I hope this helps,
Tim
