FLAC
FLAC files cannot be opened on most Mac, iOS or Android devices. FLACs usually require plugins or conversions before you can open them without trouble. If you still want to open a FLAC file, then download VLC Media player on your device, or convert it to a more compatible format like MP3.
However, FLAC still offers great quality audio, because its compression doesn't reduce its sound quality. The FLAC compression reduces file size by over half, making it easy to store in your device or share over the internet. FLAC is an open-source and lossless compression format. Its full name is "Free Lossless Audio Codec".
OGG
OGG files store music, artist info and metadata. Audio stored in OGG usually has better sound quality than MP3. You can easily play your OGG file on most Windows and Android devices, but not as easily on MacOS or iOS. Use Microsoft Groove Music to open OGG files in Windows devices. To play your OGG file on Apple devices, use VLC Media Player or convert it to MP3 or AAC.
Developed by Xiph.org, the OGG container stores audio in the free and open-source Vorbis compression. OGG files created before 2007 may contain video, as it was once used as a multimedia container format.
