Sounds great, right? Unfortunately, FLAC isn’t compatible with iTunes. This leaves FLAC-loving audiophiles who prefer iTunes and iOS devices in a bind: Do they sacrifice audio quality or the tools they prefer? Luckily, the choice isn’t quite so dire. Even though iTunes and the iOS don’t support FLAC by default, here are six ways you can play FLAC in iTunes and iOS. The conversion process is as simple as right-clicking (or batch selecting) the file you want to convert and setting it to be automatically added to iTunes. dBpoweramp requires Windows XP SP3, Vista, 7, 8 or 10, or Mac OS X 10.8. There is a free evaluation download. Purchasing the full version, which includes many features beyond file conversion, costs $39.
