FLAC or Free Lossless audio Codec is an advanced compressing Codec which provides high quality with compression (even better than Mp3, Mp3 is Lossy Flac is Lossless).
- The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) has adopted the FLAC format for the distribution of high quality audio over its Euroradio network.
- The Android operating system supports native FLAC playback since version 3.1.
- Sony Zylo Walkman plays FLAC, and
- If you are a music junkie like me you will have some of the music lying around in High Quality FLAC
but on the sadder side Windows Media Player does not support FLAC without 3rd party support and iTunes also does not do it. Many converters are available in the Market which either add something to Music or decrease the quality
