[ToS #14] How to Add lossless FLAC to iTunes (m4a/mp3)?

FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec), as its name suggested, is a free lossless audio codec. FLAC can compress audio to about 50~60% without any quality loss. This format has been widely accepted by many Hi-Fi systems and audiophiles.

Unfortunately, Apple's software and devices, like iTunes, QuickTime, iPad, iPhone, iPod, don't support FLAC format. To open and play FLAC in iTunes and won't loss quality, you can convert FLAC to Apple's own lossless audio format, FLAC (Apple Lossless Audio Codec). If you care more about file size than audio quality, you can convert FLAC to a more common format like MP3 to gain more compression rate and smaller file size. No matter you convert FLAC to FLAC/M4A or FLAC to MP3, all meta data (title, composer, etc.) include album cover art will be kept. See more at http://www.hivimoore.com/2015/04/play-flac-on-itunes/
