Simply put, if the output format is set to WAV, then any metadata that existed in the source audio will not be present in the resulting WAV file.

This is in contrast to a program like foobar2000 which retains the metadata when converting and exporting to a WAV file.

By comparison, the metadate is still present if you select FLAC, but WAV is (currently) the only way to get a lossless 32bit output so that you can subsequently do additional audio processing (e.g. ReplayGain, WaveGain, r128gain, etc) without quality loss.
