I record in Apple Lossless.
Play thru I-tunes via Airtunes controlled with a iPod Touch.
At the stereo end is an Airport Express which has both analogue and optical outputs. I run the Optical to an input on my CA840c CD player to my stereo via balanced cables.
The iPod Touch works easily over the entire house.
Others may differ and have good reasons, but I'm sticking with my iMac.\\
For PC you may be able to use WinAmp and record in FLAC but than you need to figure out the rest of the signal chain.
others will be by shortly with other approaches / signal chain
