I recently gave a lecture about digitization for FIS2308H at the Faculty of Information, University of Toronto.  In the process of preparing my slides I came across a JISC study that I found to be incredibly helpful.  It provided an excellent overview of preservation recommendations for audio and moving images, and described in detail the many different file formats that could be used to store this data.  In addition, it tackled the big question of archiving these types of materials, and even provided a sample recommended minimum metadata set.
