Sorry, unsure about WavPack’s ability to handle "gapless". I -think-
they can, but I -know- FLAC works great with SC.

Especially with (most of) the SqueezeBoxen being capable to natively
handle FLAC in the hardware player, I wouldn’t want to have my server
waste (if few) resources transcoding WavPack to FLAC.

Tagging: I prefer FLAC, it uses the -Vorbis Comment- standard as tags,
so you can introduce almost anything you want, plus multiple tags of
same name (i.e., multiple composers, genres, etc.).

-APEv2-, which WavPack prefers, is also quite free-format, but maybe
not that widespread.

In theory, both FLAC and WavPack can also handle ID3 tags, but I’d
refrain from that — it is not really much supported and quite
pointless.
