OK let's not get too nit-picky about semantics. Any flac file is not necessarily a lossless file, as it might have an empty3 source which is severely lossy.
Flac is a lossless audio carrier in that whatever one puts inside it does not suffer loss on replay, but if it is an empty3 inside then one has to be very cautious about calling the flac file lossless!

Flac is NOT inherently lossless it is merely a carrier for audio and some people convert empty3 to flac.

There are ways to play FLACs on a Mac, even from within iTunes.Further, FLAC is open source.

If you want to play FLAC on Mac, you'd better to convert FLAC to MP3, AAC, AC3, M4A, AIFF, etc.
Here is a guide to help you do this job at: http://www.faasoft.com/articles/flac-to-mp3.html
This guide applies to:
1. Convert FLAC to MP3, WAV, AAC, AC3, DTS, AU, AIFF, and etc;
2. Convert other audio formats to FLAC;
