I have a collection of music in flac format and now I want to store them on my phone. flac files get too much space and downloading all the playlist in mp3 takes as much time as finding decent and real high quality flacs (there is plenty of songs on internet which only look like 320kbps and are not really high quality). So I decided to convert my flac files into mp3 and I prefer minimum amount of quality loss; what is the best software for it?

  • Doesn’t matter if conversion take some time if the quality would be decent.

    PowerAmp has a good UI but lacks some features and usage ease so I highly recommend Musicolet.

      I’ve been using Poweramp since version 1.5 on my HTC Hero (Android 1.5!). I’m just curious as to why Musicolet is better. I’ve already noticed their statement about no internet access, so that’s a start.

      Edit: Musicolet is louder on my Bluetooth headphones than Poweramp is, that makes 2 points. 😁

        No internet access is some kind of philosophy for them but I don’t like it for two reason: 1. This philosophy prevent them from adding a feature to find and embed synced lyrics automatically. 2. If they want to respect our privacy why not just make the app open source? like the paid version doesn’t have any bold feature.

        But with all that, I still use it because Poweramp UI is not good! innovative, but not actually good.

      I just tried it. I can’t bulk import external playlists, so I’m not using it. I keep my playlists in with the music directories so I have to scroll past 3,000 artists to get to any of them in musicolet.
