EAC - Ripping Options

I want to make a perfect copy of CD using EAC. Should I choose uncompressed test/copy option, and burn with the slowest speed allowed in the CD burner?

If all I care is quality, is there any reasons I should choose FLAC/MP3 over uncompressed mode?

EAC is pretty good in correcting CD errors. Is there new software product that is better than EAC?

Thanks!

Compress to FLAC. It ia approx 1/2 the size of WAV and fully supports all the auto tagging features of EAC. It is compressed, but still bit-for-bit identical to the source CD when uncompressed for playback.

And in my case, my McIntosh only plays FLAC or MP3; no WAV allowed.
