About the FLAC to MP3
FLAC is lossless compressed audio, popular with audiophiles. Files are large and many phones, cars and apps can't play them. MP3 is the most compatible audio format in the world: every phone, car, speaker, app and editor plays it.
FileStripe decodes your FLAC file with your browser's built-in decoder and encodes MP3 on your device using the LAME MP3 encoder. Your files are never uploaded, so it is quick even for long recordings.
