Have any of you guys got into FLAC, and if so do you know any good sites for flac music.

I've got Vuze, yet it's just seems to be pissing me off

Not since Oink.

Not sure what that is refering to

FLAC is great--I just wish iTunes supported it. :-(

I am finding alot of vinyl rips to flac, gonna experiment with the sound.

Do you have any good places to look?

Sorry, no. I've only ripped a couple of my own CDs, and I haven't bothered trying to rip my vinyl.

Been using FLAC for a couple of years. Got into it when I started downloading live recordings. I've ripped my most listened to CD's to FLAC. I plan to rip all my CD's to FLAC eventually. Just need more HD space. Wished the PS3 would support it. Oh well, thats why there is ps3 media server.

Its hit and miss finding FLAC files. I've had the most luck with those pirates from Europe.

I have about 700gb's of .FLAC but I recently converted it all to ALAC because I
Prefer apples interfaces when dealing with my music.

I did a few CD's to FLAC, but I have converted to ALAC. Like bigred, I also like the Apple interface.

I used to use my PS3 to stream, but have changed over to an older D-Link DSM-320 and TVersity combo. Although the GUI is not as slick as the PS3, It handles my DTS encoded WAV files which the PS3 doesn't.

aww, forgot all about Oink. Loved that site. Sad.

Oink still exists, under a different name involving a favourite breakfast dish that's normally served with fruit and creme on it.
