It's not impossible to tag WAV files, there's just no single,
globally-accepted standard for it like there is for FLAC and other formats.
I've also read complaints about tags in WAV files causing bursts of
noise in some situations, though I've never experienced that myself and
don't know if it's really an issue.
Is there a lot of hardware/software out there still in use that accepts
WAV but not FLAC? My experience is limited at best, but what I've
noticed is plenty of setups that won't take any lossless files at all,
just MP3 and AAC. I haven't encountered anything that will play WAV but
not FLAC.
For me, the ability to reliably have the metadata always follow the
audio is too useful to pass up. And with a library my size, I certainly
don't mind the smaller files.
