If you're referring to mac, I've barely gotten that thing to work, and no player I'd consider using (Musik or MPD exclusively) supports it. mac was also the biggest pain in the ass to get installed, since the usual make chain didn't work for me with it (much less a lacking of documentation); this was all about one month ago, by the way.
I voted FLAC, for the simple reason that my players support it, and the decoder on Linux works perfectly. Add to that the really low decode time compared to APE when both run with high compression, and I find it to be the winner by leaps and bounds. The only reason I even have mac installed anymore is to rip things from APE and dump them to FLAC so my players can use it. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
