32-bit/96kHz is clearly pointless for the final product, but if you're doing a lot of manipulation and processing to produce that, doing that processing at higher resolution stops rounding errors from accumulating.
24-bit/96KHz is the best format for digital audio. It sounds better then 16-bit/44.1KHz.
