How to Convert Apple Music to FLAC?

It has been almost a year and a half since the opening of Apple's music streaming service, dubbed Apple Music, at WWDC 2015. Armed with a library of more than 30 million songs, a 24-hour radio station and a potential built-in audience of hundreds of millions of Beats and iPhone customers. Apple Music seemed like a sure thing for music fans in the Apple ecosystem.

FLAC - Compressed Format of Audio without Losses

FLAC (also known as Free Lossless Audio Codec) is the most popular lossless format. It is a good option if you want to store your music perfectly. Unlike the WAV and AIFF format, FLAC has been compressed, so it takes much less space. However, it remains a lossless format, which means that the audio quality remains the same as the original.

MP3 vs. FLAC

Compression can generate smaller tracks - which is easy for download, but comes at the expense of sound quality. If an audio is more compressed, its sounds are more blurred and flat. The trick is to find a balance between file size and sound quality. MP3 is a normal audio format , which means that parts of the music were shaved to reduce the file size to a more compact level; while FLAC is a lossless compressed audio format . Therefore, to get the most out of your original music, it would be wise to convert music to FLAC (or WAV) format instead of MP3.
