Where there is a lot of layering in a song, I think its worth it. Or where the production quality of the original is so pristine, AAC just doesn't cut it. Two good examples are Radiohead's Amnesiac and Beck's Mellow Gold. Amnesiac has never sounded tolerable in either mp3 or AAC format, at any bit rate. But in lossless, it is, well, lossless. Good as the original. I imagine this is due to the number of discrete tracks involved in many of the songs, but I can't say for sure. With Mellow Gold, the high quality of the production of the original just makes compression more noticeable. Compare this with some old Rolling Stones songs. I couldn't really tell much of a difference between lossless and AAC. By the way, these songs are being played on a G5, out through an M-Audio Delta 44 card, to a Mackie Analog Mixer, to an Alesis 100 Amp, to a pair of Audix Studio monitors. Not the best professional home studio gear, but not too bad either.
