320k mp3 of a 7 to 8 minute track is about 20,000 bytes
FLAC/AIFF/WAV file of that same track would be around 70,000 to 80,000 bytes... That is still far too much unneccessary compression. Hard drive space is pretty cheap these days...

When mixing a 320k mp3 with an original copy of a mastered disc of AIFF/FLAC files, yes I would be able to tell every time...
