You've probably heard the news: FLAC is one of the best alternatives to MP3. It's a digital audio format that offers better sound quality and file size than traditional MP3 files. But you don't need to be an audiophile to find FLAC useful — there are some important considerations for all music lovers and collectors: -Higher fidelity: The format allows for higher sound quality than MP3s at similar bit rates, meaning your favorite songs will be easier on your ears. -More compatibility: The FLAC format works with most devices (and at least one manufacturer, Sony, has already made it default), unlike some other audio formats like WMA. -Higher capacity: FLAC is a more efficient method of storage than MP3s, meaning every song will fit onto your disk. -No difference in sound quality: Some people claim that high bitrate FLAC files don't sound as good as lower resolution MP3s, but it's hard to be sure of that without hearing both. To help you decide for yourself, we've put together a list of some songs we think would sound great in the format. While they previously sold for $30 and up, Buzz Audio is offering DRM-free download versions of FLAC and WMA lossless audio files (like those from Harry Gregson Williams) for $15 and $20 respectively. FLAC is one of the best lossless formats you can buy, but buying FLAC files directly from the artist is often more trouble than it's worth, as the artists are now asking for licenses. One way around this is to use a software program called MediaMonkey to make your own FLAC files, but there are also some sites on the internet where you can download free downloads of free FLAC files. For example, here are links to one of our favorite MP3 websites that has links to download FLAC files. As of 2018 most mobile phones will not play MP3s with higher bit rate than 128 kbit/s. For example: Hence, it is not possible to play all MP3 format with bitrates > 256 kbit/s on most mobile phones. The non-existent file extension .flac can be confused with the audio format FLAC. A malicious program or Website that exposes an executable named “example.flac” could cause a user to unknowingly run the program and unknowingly download additional malware. This practice is called filename masquerading and the file extension is known as a masquerading extension since it appears to be an actual media file type but is used by malware authors as a tactic to infect and spread their malicious code and programs.
