It’s nearly lossess if you can connect and maintain a 990kbps connection, but it still doesn’t have enough bandwidth to do it truly lossless. I think it would require 1411kpbs to be actually lossless. It is still better than any codec I know of for bluetooth as far as that does, but bluetooth just kinda sucks for that sort of application.
FLAC is a lossless compression format. It will reduce file size but keeps the audio quality. So-called “high-res” format on streaming platform like spotify (mandatory fuck spotify here) are usually mp3 320kbps so heavily compressed and lossy, indeed.
To my knowledge it’s lossless in CD quality only, in high-res modes it becomes lossy

1411 kbps before compression. FLACs can go as low as 200 kbps based on the content of a file
Interesting. If that is so, then I am surprised that neither actually support actual lossless at that res without blowing up the noise floor.
