What is the best format settings to store a physical music?

I did look at Flac but the data is almost the same size as the uncompressed Wav and none of my devices or self hosted services seem designed to play flac files. Everything gets converted.

What are people using?

    That is valid and good criticism of mp3!

    I wonder if navidrome can handle switching from mp3 to opus.

      From what I’ve heard it’s impossible to go from one lossy format to another without losing quality.

        I’d test it first, I don’t expect hearing a difference
