What is a FLAC file?

FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is one of the most popular formats for storing high-quality digital music without any loss in audio fidelity. It compresses audio efficiently while preserving every bit of the original recording - unlike MP3 or AAC, which are lossy.

FLAC is widely used by audiophiles and music collectors due to its open-source nature, excellent compression ratio, and support for rich metadata. It has become a standard in the world of lossless digital audio.

How to open FLAC files

FLAC files can be played with VLC, Foobar2000, Winamp, and many modern smartphones. FLAC is also supported by popular audio editors and library tools like MusicBee.

To convert FLAC to MP3 or AAC for portable use, AnyConv offers a free and fast online solution.
