While I use Foobar or the commandline for encoding/converting, I always suggest BonkEnc to the uninitiated due to its ease-of-use & the underlying KISS (keep it simple, stupid) attitude.
Worked beautifully! Flac to MP3.
Interface isn't great. But who cares. It's free
For GNU+Linux, only available as Snap or Flatpak images
Fast, no-nonsense and efficient. Perfect software :)
I like fre:ac because I can rip CDs to FLAC format, pull metadata with CDDB, and open source.
Worked perfectly to transcode a number of FLAC folders from my music library into Apple's losless format for use on the iPhone
It works, but the interface is clumsy. There are two triangular buttons, one is play and another 'rip" - go figure.
The interface for folder creation and naming has a bug - it creates empty folders and not in correct places. Which is tolerable, but clumsy.
