I currently have approximately 450 cds ripped as VBR (128-320) using
Cdex and I am considering re-ripping them as Flac.

I would like some assistance with the following:

If Flac is "lossless" why is there a compression setting? If I use Cdex
for ripping should I set it to 0 or 8 for best quality .

When I did my Cdex VBR rips, I used the CDDB which tagged my rips
automatically. I have tried to do the same using Cdex and Flac but no
tag information is stored. 

I have read that Flac does not like ID3 tag data. Does this mean that I
cannot use CDDB and I have to tag all my discs manually.

On a different issue, why use ReplayGain when you can "normalise" the
track during the ripping process.
