>The Apple Lossless Audio Codec (ALAC) was developed by Apple for its gadgets and now Apple has released it under the Apache licence. ALAC compresses the size of audio files with no loss of quality. So, for example, if the original file is 30MB, this could cut it down to 15MB, but still retain the sound quality.

I know Myth already gets ALAC support from a library but I thought I'd pass this along.
