So how does the QP1R play with Mac computers? Is it easy to download music onto it?
Yes it was easy enough to download music to the card. This is my first Mac computer and I need to get a program that allows me to rip my cd's to a lossless format like wav or flac.
I highly recommend XLD for ripping (EAC quality) and file conversion. Free too.

Alternatively, you can just use iTunes and rip to ALAC. With the auto eject feature in iTunes, you simply insert a disc, it rips, then ejects. You insert the next disc. repeat.
If, for some odd reason you need them in FLAC, you can just drop the files on XLD to losslessly convert to FLAC.
