How to Play Lossless FLAC Audio Files on iTunes, iPhone, iPod, iPad?



This article will introduce a step by step guide on how to play lossless FLAC audio files on iPod, iPhone, iPad, iTunes in lossless with the help of the powerful FLAC Converter Mac or Windows app. 
Do you know FLAC audio format? Even though storing audio files in a FLAC container would take up a bit more space, as the free lossless audio codec, FLAC is favored by many audiophiles who prefer the high quality of sound. However, this audio format can not be supported by any of the apple products like iPod, iTunes, iPad, iPhone. 

Both iTunes and iOS devices support several digital audio file formats, including AAC, M4A, MP3, WAV, AIFF, and Apple Lossless. The first two are lossy, compressed formats (providing for small files), while the next two are uncompressed formats (resulting in huge files). The last, Apple Lossless, is a compressed-yet-lossless format. It falls somewhere in between in terms of file size, but doesn’t sacrifice sonic quality in the process (although debates rage about how much difference it makes). 

In order to solve "iTunes and iOS devices won't import FLAC" problem, I've tried several ways including convert FLAC to MP3/M4A format via iTunes. 

To perform this conversion, you just need a powerful FLAC Audio Converter app as assistant. Pavtube FLAC Converter is a ideal tool.
