I can't hear it either. I don't use FLAC for the 0.1% better audio quality compared to 320 kbps mp3, I use it because it is future proof (or better, the most future proof of formats available today), even if it needs to be converted somewhere down the line.

I also really don't care about the format of a book, as long as I can read it. Unfortunately, sometimes when publishers try to add fancy fonts and other formatting the book becomes unreadable to me (because of size, or in one particularly horrifying case, an author specifying text *color* which made the text appear faded when read using e-ink)
I've seen too many badly formatted e-books. I don't like the formatting of most Gutenberg books I've seen. The ones at Feedbooks are much better, in my opinion; the Barnes&Noble Classics are even better yet (but not free, except the ones they've given away).
