-FLAC offers exactly the same quality as the CD, and 
-it has editable metadata ;)

It used to be that Konq would show FLAC version of the
tracks (http://michaelcarden.net/blog/?p=21) but
lately it does not in Kubuntu 7.10, so I would say
playing or ripping CDs using Amarok has become
complicated. Wish Amarok could include the playback
functionalities of kscd so that you could ditch it.
