I store everything with Apple Lossless, which is CD quality. My collection takes up quite a bit of space, but with the price of storage dropping rapidly, it is well worth it. I have a 1TB external drive for music and a 2TB drive for backup. The 1TB drive currently holds nearly 2000 CD's and is only about half full. I am also able to scan the booklets and add them to iTunes as a pdf file. I have my own scheme for indicating track names, composers, etc. so I don't rely much on the internet search provided information. Now that I have my computer connected directly to a high quality amp and speakers, I have never found listening to music so easy and convenient.
