I was wondering what the preferred loseless format would be on here.

Any thoughts?

I'd say that .wav is the most uniformly accepted over all operating systems, but flac is better for torrenting because you get smaller file sizes, and I think most people who get into torrenting are savvy enough to figure out how to use flac files.
