Whats wrong with transcoding on the server for proprietary formats (if
you insist on using them ) ? it will load the cpu a bit but a decent
mac/pc/server will cope with it.

It won't hurt sound quality at all, lossless is lossless.
you can have alac transcoded to flac.

Besides there are some kamikaze pilots ;-) here that insist on having
alac and wma lossles on linux based NAS boxes ? that would be like me
shopping for cars in uk and complaining that the steering wheel is at
wrong side.

Use your alac or wma lossles with an os/hardware that has natural
support for it, makes transcoding painless (unless you like pain ).
