Topic: Quality MP3 320 VS FLAC
What format (quality) do you often use when playing at night clubs or no matter where? My songs are completely in MP3 320 and i am most satisfied. As far as i am concerned, I can't figure out the difference between MP3 320 and FLAC. Up to date, many an individual prefers/utilises mp3 320 for the file and the quality is balanced. What's your opinion? Do you use any other format either lossy or lossless?

In most listening tests, for 99% of the tracks for 99% of the people 192kbps mp3 was already transparent/indistinguishable from the original, so it doesn't matter that much.
Between lossy formats, if you have the choice I'd choose m4a/mp4 instead of mp3 these days though.
It does improve compression a bit, and it is better specified, so less likely to have issues like cue points slightly off when switching between systems.
