Hello everyone :) , How's everything ? . today i'm gonna compare mp3 with flac , which it's better ? , before saying which it's better let's compare it first
This is MP3 + and -
+ Have relative small size, very popular, Tagging Support, Extra Feature (Volume normalization + Replay Gain)
- several data lost in compression, actually illegal , Some minor limitations
And this is Flac + and -
+ Feel the real feels of the song , Fast decoding , Open-source, Tagging support , Larger ecosystem than other lossless formats,
- Big File Size, Need good equipment
And what audio format you usually use ? :p , I usually use flac , because you know lossless formats the real feels of the songs.
