With the equipment used in this video, the file format will make little difference to the poor quality sound delivered by the bottom-of-the-line quality turntable, tone-arm, cartridge, computer sound-card built-in phono stage, low end interconnect (analog cable) and very likely a crappy analog to digital converter plagued with jitter. All junk.

BTW: .flac is not lossless. It just has a higher sampling rate and higher bit rate than the Red Book (store bought CD) standard.
@NoEgg4u FLAC is lossless. Take a WAV file, and convert it to a FLAC file, then line both of the files up perfectly, and invert one of the tracks, if you hear nothing after that, that will prove to you FLAC is indeed lossless.
.flac files are lossless in the sense that its compression algorithm does not discard samples (like mp3s do). But it is digital, and, therefore, is a form of sampling. It has a bit rate (how much data is in each sample) and a sampling rate (how many snapshots are taken per second).
.
Digital, no matter what the format, will always be lossy. You can double the rates forever. Each rate will be ½ as lossy as the previous rates - but lossy nonetheless.
that is awesome thanks for posting i'm going to help my dad transfer his old Scorpion records he has a bunch of their rare European 70s stuff and we can't find them on cd so we decided to do this thanks. Zeppelin rules.
This is a complete waste of time. You are saving the files in mp3 @ 128KBPS, people need to save it in FLAC which is lossless

@VVWEtitantrons this is just an example. Save it in whichever format you like, as long as your portable player supports the format.

My turntable has a built in preamp.
