so, for my downloading I usually use FLAC format. I am downloading a show that is only available in 24 bit FLAC (not only, but not in the usualy 16 bit FLAC) and I don't want it in that, as it is much larger, probably inferior audio and much less convenient, mostly the size, though.
So I think Ogg Vorbis is the other Lossless format. I've never used it and am not familiar with any tools I may need. How does it compare, sizewise, to FLAC? Does it play natively in most players, or will I need to convert it? I usually use Google Play on my phone to play music, but also have the Android music player. I've used foobar for conversions in the past, although honestly i done much converting for a couple of years. Does foobar need a plug-in to work with Ogg Vorbis? Is there a better tool in general?
Thanks for sharing the knowledge....
