This is a large spreadsheet of recommended file formats by international media preservation organizations. I found it interesting reading. The left hand column is a comprehensive list of file formats, divided by category (audio, video, spreahsheet, etc) and across the top are the different organizations. Each organization gives the file formats a rating; these ratings are aggregated and can be found in the right-hand column. Mostly, the ratings are what you would expect, but there are some surprises (to me, at least). It's still a work in progress with organizations having another month to contribute.
