flac - flac - Free Lossless Audio Codec

Website: http://flac.sourceforge.net/
License: GPL and LGPL and GFDL
Description:
 FLAC stands for Free Lossless Audio Codec. Grossly oversimplified, FLAC is
 similar to MP3, but lossless. The FLAC project consists of:

    * the stream format
    * reference encoders and decoders in library form
    * flac, a command-line program to encode and decode FLAC files
    * metaflac, a command-line metadata editor for FLAC files
    * input plugins for various music players

 "Free" means that the specification of the stream format is fully open to the
 public to be used for any purpose (the FLAC project reserves the right to set
 the FLAC specification and certify compliance), and that neither the FLAC form
 at nor any of the implemented encoding/decoding methods are covered by any
 known patent. It also means that all the source code is available under
 open-source licenses.
