(it also offers slightly better compression ratio than FLAC). note also, that when it comes to "transcoding" - re-encoding previously decoded audio - some of the lossy formats introduce audible artefacts... so for stereo Bluetooth wireless, for example, a non-destructive audio coding scheme is better... SENNHEISER recently launched several new stereo Bluetooth headphone models featuring "apt-X" for full-bandwidth audio fidelity over wireless. just to add that a new lossless audio compression alogorithm called “apt-X Lossless” has joined the Lossless pack. but in contrast to the existing types, “apt-X Lossless” can self-adjust (auto-adapt and scale) for optimal streaming over fading/noisy wireless channels, or maximising battery life in portable apps.
