AIFF with error correction via itunes gets the job done easily and doesn't lose metadata(art, etc.). Apple lossless will use less space, but AIFF doesn't lose anything. Stick with AIFF. Cheers,

Ripping to Mac OSX
I have good ears, but no real computer knowledge. I've just purchased a Mac Mini with Snow Leopard, running it via USB (for now) into a PS Audio PWD.
I don't have a huge collection, so at this point, I've just decided to save into WAV format using Itunes.
Questions:
Is there a sonic reason to use another program other than Itunes to rip normal redbook CDs?
On non hirez, is there a reason to use a player other than Itunes for sound quality reasons?
I very much enjoy reading the posts on this thread. I've learned much, though quite a bit of the info shared is over my head!
