Digital release quality

AIFF files are tagged correctly, you cant edit WAV files (or at least i dont know how to). having AIFFs makes things so much easier to navigate when using serato coz it already has artist, label etc

Ah right I get that. If you buy wavs or flac you can convert to aiff.. I buy FLAC pretty much exclusively then drop the flacs into XLD to have AIFF output. All the tags convert along with the album art being written to the aiff if you want.

Adding the album art and tags sounds like a nuisance to me, I don't mind paying extra because it makes everything a lot easier for me.

it's all automatic but I can see why you'd want to keep it simple.

I'm just bitter

When I bought wavs there were no tags on them at all, just the file name. Perhaps FLAC files are different (Beatport don't sell them)
