Also, if you rip to lossless, you’ll have archival files, which you can later convert to any format without needing to re-rip your CDs. And lossless files sound exactly like CDs, so you’ll have the best quality for your home listening. So if you have a large music collection, you’ll need a bigger hard drive (or more than one).
But why use lossless files? What’s the advantage?Īs you’ve seen above, lossless files take up a lot more space. You may also have some FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) files you’ve downloaded they’re very common. You have the option to rip your CDs to Apple Lossless format. While you can tag WAV and AIFF files in iTunes, not all of these tags remain in the files if you move from your iTunes library to another computer or device. Not only do they take up a lot of space, but tags-metadata you add to the files-aren’t supported as well as with the other formats. Note that it’s generally not a good idea to use AIFF or WAV files in your iTunes library.
