If this is the wrong sub, I apologize, but the knowledge in here is off the charts.

I have hundreds of CDs I’ve collected through the years, and have ripped them to MP3 to play on my phone.

But, I started worrying when I went to replace a CD for one that had just lost its quality, I found out that it wasn’t issued anymore, and would be almost impossible to replace it.

So, now I’m wanting to rip my CDs so that they’re exact copies. I plan on burning my favorite ones to play in my car/home audio system.

I use WMP, and I just wanted to know which format is best, WAV or FLAC, to store them. I plan on using Anyburn to use to convert back to CD audio.

Any opinions?

Thanks!

    If you want to preserve the quality of the original CD, a lossless format is the only answer.

    WAV is lossless but tagging support is poor.

    Better use FLAC as is is lossless as well but does have excellent tagging support.
