:lol:

ALAC supports gapless playback? Are you sure? I'm pretty certain it
doesn't support FWD and REV, though. 

As for AIFF, I really don't see the point in using it. If its anything
like WAV, there's no difference, soundwise, with ALAC or FLAC, AIFF
tracks take a lot more of space and its a poor choice for tagging
purposes.

But its not recommended for music with high dynamic range, like
classical.
