RE: Need software to compare flac and apple lossless tags

If the ALAC and FLAC files have the same sampling rate and word length you can convert back and forth as many times as you like and you will get the same audio samples. The only issue in converting would be if the word size or sample rate was different for two versions of the same track. Then the "conversion" process would produce different audio samples as an unwanted side effect of copying the tags.

Why do you have two libraries in the first place and what are you trying to do? This will determine the best approach.
