MP3 to FLAC converter

The MP3 audio file format is one of the most widely used and versatile formats for digital audio. It is a container format that combines various multimedia elements such as bit rate, sample rate, and stereo- or mono-mode encoding.

MP3 files are smaller in size compared to other audio file formats like WAV and AIF but are known for their excellent sound quality, even when compressed at a smaller size. Popular music player programs use the MP3 format and popular web browsers and devices such as iPods are also able to play them with ease.

FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is an open-source audio format that is both lossless and compressed. Lossless means that no information is lost in the compression process, which preserves the full quality of the original audio source. FLAC is very popular among audiophiles and listeners who want the best possible experience while listening to music.

FLAC files typically have a .flac extension and can be played on almost any modern media player, including VLC, Windows Media Player, and Foobar2000. The format works best when streamed over an internet connection, providing high-quality audio without any slowdowns or glitches.
