I download a lot of flac now a days, but I also have most of my library in V0 and 320, because V0 is apparently just how many kbps a song "needs" (I have no idea how it judges to change the kbps per song).
I think there might be a subtle difference when listening to lossless with high end headphones, a bit more clear and crisp. I really have no idea whether or not that's the placebo effect though, because I know the placebo effect is real and I know I've sampled songs back to back in various bit rates in a blind test and I found I couldn't tell a difference until I got down to 128kbps (which sounds subtly grainier, noticably). Otherwise I'm not sure if it's noticeable, even between something like V0 and 320kbps.
