Pyrex vs Tins, Freeform vs Loaf pan

I was wondering if there is a significant difference in baking in a pyrex vs metal loaf pan? Baking time, crust? and # 2..Would I get poor results baking a loaf pan recipe freeform on a stone?

My results are generally good when I do that. As a general rule the crust will be thicker and harder, and if the dough tends to slump the loaf will be flatter.

 

All depends on the recipe. Give it a try!
