Which audio codec are you people using when ripping cd's? I used wav but the size made it not really fitting on my phone (60GB) I switched to FLAC. Many people I talked to said that CD's just use mp3 codecs in the First place.

CD audio is its own standard with a bitrate of 1411kbps and is considered "uncompressed". Professionally mastered CDs are not just a bunch of mp3s on a disc. FLAC is definitely worth it if you have the space.
