Just an aside. After I read your post I Googled "WAV vs. AIFF". Several posts on other forums said that AIFF was developed by Apple prior to Windows developing WAV. Interesting eh?
As far as one format verses another is concerned, computing horsepower and storage is cheap enough these days for most folks to experiment and make up their own minds.
If I ever get far enough along in EAC that I can actually rip to WAV and then convert to various formats, I will make up my own mind. But once again I am frustrated with EACs steep learning curve. Right now I feel like Luke Skywalker when he disregarded the wise Yoda and quit Jedi training. I just want to pickup my Light Saber (Apple Itunes) and start slashing away.
