Ripping CD to FLAC - File Size
Hi
I hope this is the correct place for this question.
I've done a couple of test rips to replace to rip my CDs onto a NAS for playback, previously I have used MP3 but now have the space to use a lossless codec such as FLAC.
I'm using Windows Media Player to do the rip.
So far I have ripped two CDs without a problem but whilst the file size for one is recorded as 300,897,431 bytes the size on disk is 2.75GB is round numbers, nearly 10 times the size. The other CD has the same issue
I can't understand why there is such a discrepancy, any ideas?
Thanks
