Regarding using FLAC instead of WAV - I can actually hear a substantial
difference between the two. I'm currently using the original Squeezebox,
so I assume I'm relying on my PC to uncompress the FLAC and stream as
PCM/WAV? I'm still a touch confused by all the options surrounding this.
I've got a SqueezeBox2 on order, so I understand I'll then be able to
stream FLAC and have the SqueezeBox un-compress (inflate?) back to
PCM/WAV before feeding my hifi. Should I expect this to make a
difference to audio quality? Which music library apps support FLAC &
will help with tagging - I don't think either iTunes or MusicMatch do?

There should be no difference in the sound quality. You likely have transcoding turned on. Is your SB1 wireless?
