It's all up to you and the settings you pick. For sure, if you picked .WAV, it would be as complete a copy as you could get and you could always convert from that to something else later. On the other hand, you would still get compression, saving space, even at 256 or 320 using MP3, and it would sound great. Could you tell the difference in a double blind test? I doubt it. Could you play MP3s on any cd player in case you wanted? No.
