You are not wasting anything. You are using more space to record more information/music by using less compression. The compression factor should not be of greater importance than music quality unless you have specific reasons for achieving small files.
Rip a .wav file some time and compare it to 192 .mp3 rip of the same track and same CD. In between those sizes are some good codecs and techniques.
