FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is an open source lossless audio format that offers exact audio reproduction while reducing file size by about 50-60% compared to uncompressed audio.
WMA (Windows Media Audio) is a compressed audio format developed by Microsoft that offers good quality audio with smaller file sizes than uncompressed formats.
While FLAC preserves 100% of the original audio data, WMA uses lossy compression that removes some audio data to achieve smaller file sizes for everyday listening.
WMA is widely supported on Windows devices and many media players, making it convenient for Windows users and portable devices.
Converting FLAC to WMA involves transcoding from a lossless format to a lossy format. The conversion decodes the FLAC file to PCM audio and then re-encodes it to the WMA format.
WMA files are typically much smaller than the original FLAC files, making them suitable for portable devices and storage-constrained scenarios.
WMA supports various bitrates (from 48 kbps to 192 kbps typically), allowing users to balance between file size and audio quality.
This conversion is especially useful for compatibility with Windows media players, older devices, and software that supports the WMA format.
WMA files can contain metadata similar to MP3 files, preserving artist information, album art, and other tag information during conversion.
