Sorry if I'm splitting hairs, but ... any audio file in any format can be
looped.  It's a question of whether the player can do it :)

I think one of the old Mac sound helper apps (SoundApp) might loop just
about any format you like, though modern browsers play sounds directly and
I don't think they loop, generally.

Anyhow, I think RealAudio is the best choice if streaming and a large
installation base are the main concerns.
