Unless you use a special secure formating program, there appears to be almost no difference between formating or deleting files. The data areas aren't touched just the FAT is modified. either re-build in the case of formating or the entries are marked as deleted in the case of deleting. IMHO it makes no difference.

After transferring data from a memory card to the PC, is it better to delete

Does the memory card need to be formatted with each use?
