I need to do my own CD collection, and will rip it to m4a, or maybe even wav. NAS drives are cheap enough to not worry about space any more.
Do not do .wav
That is a bit for bit format and although it may seem like a logical choice if you are not concerned about the file sizes, there are some issues.
1) .wav supports 16bit/44.1kHz as the highest audio sampling rate. FLAC & m4a can support high resoltuion audio, up to 24bit/96kHz.
2) .wav does not natively support metadata. You can add ID3 tags to .wav files (including coverart) but a lot of devices have problems reading them properly with .wav addons.
