RE: Ripping to lossless...
Posted by AbeCollins on July 21, 2022 at 11:24:41:
In the very early days I used ALAC because I used iTunes on the Mac as there wasn't much else available back then for Mac. ALAC is very similar to FLAC but w/o the FLAC bugs - a problem that existed with FLAC several years ago that has since been fixed.
For a compressed lossless format I would use FLAC today. I don't think DRM is an issue but for wider portability I would lean toward FLAC.
