[SurroundSound] Re: convert flac to mac...

#1, FLAC is a lossless container.  If you put a lossy MP3 into it, you can retrieve that MP3 with no losses incurred.  End of story.  Secondly, if you wish to convert FLAC to a more Mac friendly type, use dbPowerAmp and convert it to ALAC which is Apple's rip-off of FLAC.  The resulting ALAC files will then allow one to retrieve the original content un-molested.  End of story...
