Which audio codec to choose?

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.

I'd love to have everything in FLAC for preservation's sake, but I've settled for Apple's QAAC. Great quality, small size, universally supported.

Oh never heard of it. Could you give informations about the listening quality?

I believe its an quicktime encoder for AAC and ALAC so the quality would be that of AAC
