FLAC is used because its far smaller than Wave and lossless though FLAC is bigger than MP3 etc.
The upshot of all this is that you get the full sound you'd get with FLAC as you would with Wave but in a smaller file size. The joke is that MP3 files - some I've seen - have been done using minimum compression and so on and you have to ask the question, why didn't these people create FLAC files instead? The resulting FLAC files wouldn't have been much bigger but would have been of better quality. On 4 Oct 2014, at 10:45 pm, Hamit Campos <hamitcam...@gmail.com> wrote: > No sir.
