Nice list of Flac files, I hope there's more as I don't see any of the classical genre.

I'll keep trying to erax, thanks for the suggestion. If it's no good for me I'll give it away save someone else trying to hammer the site waiting for a free spot.

Is it possible to play flac on regular cd players?

I have heard much about E***o and BTmusic but have no real idea of what they have in content or their speed. Can someone give me this information and does anyone have a spare invite?

Feel free to PM me screenies showing their content :lol:.

Thanks

E**go has a good collection in flac files combined with old music and new music.

some cd players play flac but the majority don't

so you have to convert to wav first

In addition, some "mp3" players also play FLAC with a modded firmware (iRivers) ;).

Ok so you guys basically only download flac music to listen to on your pc or can you convert them to say 320?
What is the best quality music besides flac that is playable on regular cd players is it 320 or v0?Can you convert flac to 320 and if so which program do you use to do it?I just like my music to be the highest possible quality.
Thanks guys for the help i appreciate it.

The way I have my system set up is to play FLAC files through my PC. The PC is hooked up to my speaker system (hi-fi/amplifier) via spdif.
I use foobar2k to play my music files and use kernal streaming or passthrough.
You can convert FLAC to 320kbp mp3 if you wish, a simple click in you foobar does it easily.
Some people can hear the difference between lossless FLAC compression and a lossy compression like mp3. Up to the user really... I prefer FLAC because I find the different instruments in classical music a little more distinct. For other genres my ears aren't as picky but I just prefer FLAC cause I'm anal :P.

/edit: Some interesting articles about audio compression you might be interested in:

Thanks alco.

Can also use TabMixPlus and the 'Reload Every' option.
