flac is like a listeneable zip of sorts (in a way).
I think some players like foobar can even play the content of actual zip files, but that's a totally different story...


That is fucking brilliant! But will soon be totally unnecessary as internet speeds and hard drive sizes increase. Soon the internet will only contain WAV files and uncompressed movies, no need to compress/zip anything!
