Simply having the files isn't enough. To truly enjoy FLAC, you need a setup that can handle the high bitrate.
FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is the gold standard for archivists. Unlike MP3 (which discards data), FLAC compresses without losing a single bit of the original CD audio. Files are roughly 30-50 MB per song, compared to 10 MB for an MP3.
