about to convert all my .flac and .m4a songs into .ape
before i do it, are there any filetypes that do better than monkey's audio?
cheers fellas :^)
(that provide smaller filesizes)
im on a 128gb SSD and have only 4gb left

Convert them to 320kbps mp3s that sound identical and take up less space
FLAC is king and anybody who says otherwise is objectively wrong.

Monkey's compression algorithm in symmetrical, meaning if you make your CPU work really hard to compress, it will work really hard to de-compress when playing. This is okay for desktops, but terrible for portable players.

Shit format. Is it at least libre? I don't see any benefits over flac.

This is false.
Apple lossless is objectively superior. The tough part, for you, is proving me wrong. But that's what happens when you just make blanket statements with no supporting evidence

aren't you also making a blanket statement with no supporting evidence?

FLAC is smaller and faster than ALAC. iOS compatibility is the only reason to choose the latter.

pied piper algo
OP HERE
THANKS GUYS FOR THE SUGGESTIONS
I THINK IM JUST GONNA STICK WITH FLAC AND CONVERT ALL MY M4A'S TO FLAC
I HAVE A PHONE SO YEAH NEED TO SAVE BATTERY BUT WOULD LIKE HIGH FIDELITY MUSIC
MIGHT MAKE MP3'S FOR ALBUMS I DONT CARE ABOUT AND BACK UP THE LOSSLESS FILES ON ANOTHER HARD DRIVE
ALSO MP3FAGS FUCK OFF
