Same here. I started out with APE, but ended up with FLAC since it's truly open source and has better compatibility since it's open source.

Took me forever to convert all my APE's to FLAC though.

And yeah since the file sizes are so huge compared to MP3's, battery life suffers for HDD based players since the buffer gets used up very quickly asnd the HDD gets accessed more often.
