How to Play Lossless FLAC Audio Files on iTunes, iPhone, iPod, iPad?

This article will introduce a step by step guide on how to play lossless FLAC audio files on iPod, iPhone, iPad, iTunes in lossless with the help of the powerful FLAC Converter Mac or Windows app.

Do you know FLAC audio format? Even though storing audio files in a FLAC container would take up a bit more space, as the free lossless audio codec, FLAC is favored by many audiophiles who prefer the high quality of sound. However, this audio format can not be supported by any of the apple products like iPod, iTunes, iPad, iPhone.

Both iTunes and iOS devices support several digital audio file formats, including AAC, M4A, MP3, WAV, AIFF, and Apple Lossless. The first two are lossy, compressed formats (providing for small files), while the next two are uncompressed formats (resulting in huge files). The last, Apple Lossless, is a compressed-yet-lossless format. It falls somewhere in between in terms of file size, but doesn’t sacrifice sonic quality in the process (although debates rage about how much difference it makes).

In order to solve "iTunes and iOS devices won't import FLAC" problem, I've tried several ways including convert FLAC to MP3/M4A format via iTunes.

To perform this conversion, you just need a powerful FLAC Audio Converter app as assistant. Pavtube FLAC Converter is a ideal tool. It can easily convert FLAC audio files to MP3, M4A, AAC, M4R, MKA, OGG, WMA, WAV, DTS remux to play FLAC on iPhone, iPad, iTunes, iPod, Quicktime, iMovie, FCP, FCE, Windows Media Player, etc.

Sync Amazon Videos/Movies to iTunes for iPhone 5S/5C, iPhone 5, iPhone 4S, iPod 5...

Amazon Store offers instant streaming on the Kindle Fire, as well as PC, Mac, Roku, and hundreds of TVs and Blu-ray players. All of your videos are stored in Your Video Library, so you can access them anywhere you go. Good news is that Amazon Instant Video is now playing on your iPad. Videos you've purchased or rented are already available on your iPad. However, you can not transfer Amazon Videos to iTunes for synchronizing with more iOS devices like iPhone 5S, iPhone 5C, iPhone 5, iPhone 4S, iPod 5, etc. The problem is that video files purchased from Amazon Instant Video are usually DRM-protected WMV (Windows Media Video) files. To sync Aamzon videos to iTunes, you may have to fix two things:

  1. Since DRM limited your use on iTunes, so you'll need to strip DRM from Amazon Videos so as to play them on more non-authorized devices.
  2. WMV is a not an iTunes-supported format. You'll need to convert it to either .mov, .mp4, or .m4v that is supported by iTunes.

As you see, the DRM-protected Amazon movies are not eligible for transfer or playback, but but that's expected from a non-official solution along with some help from third-party softwares. To achieve your goal smoothly, below is simple tutorial for you, guaranteed to transfer Amazon Instant Videos to iTunes for playback smoothly.
  
How to Get Rid of DRM restriction and Convert Amazon WMV videos to iTunes friendly format?
