I have a question about that, since with newer generations you publish also FLAC files...
Can I decompress the FLAC file to WAV in order to burn it to an audio CD?
If not, I will continue to burn mp3s to a data cd (so I can listen to them on a HI-FI system)
Thank you for the reply
I'm not sure if anyone still does, I used to a few years ago. As long as it's not reconverting it. We have this old guide https://subliminal-talk.com/Thread-How-T...A-Download
I'm not sure if that applies to FLAC. Since FLAC is losless i'd say it should be able to be done directly without reconverting. But maybe Shannon or someone else can comment.
Thank you Ben, but Shannon already responded....

In other words, transcoding it is not decompressing it, and is to be avoided. Decompression is always to an uncompressed format, and does no damage. .WAV is an uncompressed format, so you are free to decompress .FLAC and /MP3 files to .WAV to make your own CDs. If you do this, always use .FLAC, which will give you the original .WAV I created.
The key is, never try to transcode or re-compress a subliminal.
