![]() Audio streaming services also use a format known as AAC which will usually sound better than MP3 at the same bitrates. Alternatively, users can also use the 'Add Files' option to load MP3 files from your PC. Drag and drop the MP3 media files into the main interface of the program. The reason we say may is because even some audiophiles claim they cannot differentiate between 320kbps MP3 and a lossless format like FLAC, which we'll talk about later. Once the MP3 to FLAC converter is launched, start adding MP3 media files into the program. However, MP3 is a compressed audio format which basically means you're losing out on some information that you may otherwise hear on a lossless audio file. This format is popular since it's widely supported across multiple devices without any compatibility issues. Most audio files you download from the internet these days are generally in MP3 format. In order to reduce the size of these audio files, they have to be compressed, and that's where they lose the lossless tag. A high bitrate means more data, which in turn means high file sizes. ![]() Ideally, this is the bitrate and sample rate required to hear "lossless" audio. High-quality WAV files generally have a bitrate of 1,411kbps and a sample rate of 44.1KHz. When we "rip" CD files to a computer, we often convert these audio streams to WAV or AIF, as both codecs support the same bitrate and sample rate of a CD. CDs, or Compact Discs, typically use an audio format built specifically for CD players and do not have a direct-to-PC equivalent.
