Exactly. "To each his own"

If you enjoy the music that's what counts.

However, if you can hear the difference, it's hard to go back to an inferior sounding format. At least it is for me. But as you say, to each his own.

I had a few thousand 256kbps AAC tunes on my iPod Classic for the car audio system. It was enjoyable until I compared some of the songs using Apple Lossless. I ended up wiping out the entire library and redoing everything in Apple Lossless. Much better! So the car audio setup now uses Apple Lossless compression throughout. I couldn't go back to AAC and still enjoy it.

On the other hand, and for the sake of saving space, I use 256kbps AAC on my iPhone for portable use. I can still enjoy the music during my travels but would never attach the iPhone with the AAC files to my car audio or home setup for primary use.
