Data compression and audio compression are not the same. Zipping and unzipping would not affect the quality of the audio.

Of course it suffers but the cool thing about FLAC is not that much. WAV is uncompressed and it can't get any better. There is no way to reduce file size without affecting the content. I believe FLAC takes away half of the sample points that form the wave forms to reduce file size or something.
