\chapter{Free Lossless Audio Codec}
FLAC compresses PCM audio data losslessly using predictors and a
residual.
FLACs contain checksumming to verify their integrity, contain comment tags for
metadata and are stream-able.

Except for the contents of the VORBIS\_COMMENT metadata block, everything in FLAC is big-endian.
