5 Free FLAC to MP3 converters

I was looking through my music library and found some FLAC encoded files which would not play on my PCs media player. I went looking for a free alternative and found this great article on it. Enjoy.

FLAC( Free Lossless Audio Codec ) is a famous lossless audio compression format, but FLAC is not as popular as MP3, and the FLAC music files take more disk space than mp3 files, so you might need to convert the FLAC audio files to MP3 format.
