FLAC is the audiophile's handshake: CD-perfect sound at roughly half the shelf space. Free Lossless Audio Codec: think ZIP for sound: it decompresses back to the exact original.

What this FLAC converter flips
Two directions, one page. Outbound: turn FLAC into MP3, WAV, FLAC, AAC or any format a stubborn app insists on: useful because FLAC is weak at fitting in pockets: lossless is still large: and charming Apple's own apps. Inbound: turn practically any audio or video file into FLAC, which earns its keep at archiving music with zero quality loss and a genuine size saving.
