  • Honestly the easiest way of getting your hands on FLAC is via private torrent sites. The current largest site after what.cd's untimely demise currently has almost 700k albums in FLAC and 30k active users. If it makes you feel guilty just find the artist's website and buy some merch, they get a bigger cut from that anyway.

    You should also determine whether it's worth the effort and disc space as very few people have ears and a system good enough to distinguish between lossless and mp3 V0.

  • I agree with the point about the difference between mp3 v0 and lossless, although considerations for me in having opted for FLAC many years ago were: 1) the future-proofing benefit of being able to transcode to whatever new formats might emerge, and; 2) the absence of DRM.
