My friend told me that 'Apple Lossless Format' is the best, but i think FLACs are the best. Your opinion?
In royalty fees.The only digital format I've ever heard of that's hands and feet about it's competition is HD-AAC...
So... How about I go burn down some HD-AAC encoded files into a DVD right now and create a paradox?It is, however, designed specifically to be higher quality than even physical media.
For all intensive purposes, ALAC and FLAC are virtually identical, as far as I know. The only digital format I've ever heard of that's hands and feet about it's competition is HD-AAC, which isn't really even supported by anything at all. It is, however, designed specifically to be higher quality than even physical media.

The part in bold is absolute marketing BS, the basis of HD-AAC is still a high resolution PCM which both FLAC and ALAC actually support.
Nicely said. Honestly, the world doesn't need another pseudo lossless format, when there is already a split world between a closed format (ALAC) and an open format (FLAC).
