Part 1: From MP3 to FLAC

When downloading music, we can see the options, such as standard quality, high quality and supper quality. Generally, MP3 is used in the standard quality music and FLAC for supper quality music.

Compared to MP3, the format with lossy compression, FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is featured as lossless compression. If the music in CD is saved as FLAC, the file size of FLAC is merely half of that in CD. What’s more, the sound quality is close to the original music. Therefore, FLAC has been welcomed by many people since it is published in 2001. Many software and devices support this format.

Part 2: APE vs FLAC

Let’s make comparison, APE vs FLAC.

APE is also the lossless format, similar with FLAC. Their algorithms are different, so they perform differently. Generally, a song saved as APE is smaller than that in FLAC. But once the APE file is damaged or part of the data is lost, the left data cannot be output or played.

By contrast, once a FLAC file is damaged, the left data can still be played. Besides, the coding of FLAC is open source, so it is compatible well with the players. We suggest that you convert APE t FLAC when you are going to play music.
