FLAC Audio
What is FLAC audio? FLAC stands for Free Lossless Audio Codec, a leading compression technique that preserves original audio quality while reducing file size. FLAC audio is similar to MP3, but lossless, which is similar to how Zip works, except with .FLAC audio you will get much better compression, and you can play back compressed FLAC audio in your favorite player just like you would an MP3 file.
FLAC is an open-source, royalty-free format that has been adopted widely for its many advantages in digital audio reproduction. One of the great strengths of FLAC audio is its very fast decoding time, or ability to stream even on modest hardware. The only real disadvantage of FLAC audio is that the compression ratio is not as steep as other codecs. FLAC supports tagging, cover art, and fast seeking. FLAC is freely available and supported on most operating systems, including Windows, unix (Linux, *BSD, Solaris, OS X, IRIX), BeOS, OS/2, and Amiga.
