Flac

Looking back at the world of music and communication, it’s amazing to see the transitions that have taken place to get to where we are now. With iPods, FLAC (free lossless audio codec), and the domination of digital files over physical venues, we are able to immerse ourselves in recordings of the highest imaginable quality.

The days of the old slogan, “Is it live or is it Memorex?” are truly upon us.
