One of the benefits of FLAC is, specifically, being lossless. You can convert from FLAC to APE to ALAC and back again and still have bit-perfect copies. You can convert to whatever someone comes up with five, ten, twenty five, a hundred years from now and still have bit-perfect copies. You can convert FLAC to any format supported by any digital player ever made or will ever will be made. It's perfect future-proofing.
