I've recently changed some of my albums with FLAC or Monkey Audio. There's definitely an improvment (depending on song/genre etc) in audio quality. To those who can't hear a difference, try a different song.

In addition to that since they're both lossless codecs the biggest benefit is the versatility of converting to any other desired codec without an additional quality loss.

i have not done the lossy thing in five years.

once you train your ears to not be fooled by the psycho-acoustic model of lossy audio encoding there is no turning back. FLAC is the only way. "ape" killed itself...

Yeah FLAC is totally > APE. It performs better (APE's seeking sucks!) and it's more widely supported (noting APE's retarded licence and platform support). Haven't gotten round to converting them yet.
