Best Answer

Free Lossless Audio Codec. As the name implies, there is no loss of sound quality. Beware, you'll need a FLAC player to hear them, as an iPod will usually only play .M4A & .ALAC files.

No. Because Flac and DTS are different file formats. Probably what you have is a DTS files converted to Flac. Flac will play on some audio equipment, but support for flac is still rare. DTS will play on more audio hardware, and tends to be in most of the multichannel DVD amps.
