hi! I would like to ask, what are FLAC levels? I mean , level 8, 6 or whatever... is lower lever lossy or what?
FLAC is NEVER lossy

The levels are to do with the amount of compression. It doesn't affect the result, but the higher the compression, the longer it takes to compress/decompress them (decompression doesn't matter if you have a FLAC plug-in for your music player and/or burning program).

Exactly... and the higher the level of compression, the smaller the file is.
