I understood that to play a flac the file has to be uncompressed a bit like
Zip. Thus it tends to need a lot of ram to be available. I wonder what they
were using to play the files.

What about some of the lossless formats that Apple and others use, are these
similar?

Often of course if the hardware is working hard then one might find some
issues with the extra processing needed to record and play sounds.

A well-known hi-fi magazine recently ran an article about how apparently an
uncompressed WAV file sounds better than FLAC.

Ummmm...

*facepalm*
