    About M4V and FLAC

    M4V: M4V is Apple's MP4 variant used for iTunes movies and TV shows. Unprotected M4V files are identical to MP4.

    FLAC: FLAC is an open lossless format that shrinks audio to 50–60% of WAV size without losing any quality. It is the favourite format of audiophiles and hi-res music stores.
