Converting FLAC to OGG trades detail for size, and the trade is permanent. Encode at the top of the 96 to 320 kbps range if the file will be edited again later. Size falls from about 6 MB per minute to around 1.6 MB per minute.
This direction reduces compatibility rather than improving it, with 4 platforms losing native support. It is the right choice for a specific workflow, not for sharing widely.
This conversion moves the file toward a different purpose: FLAC suits long-term archiving, audiophile listening, CD ripping, whereas OGG is chosen for game audio, open-source projects, web delivery.
Converting FLAC to OGG means moving audio out of the FLAC container, introduced in 2001, and into Ogg, which arrived in 2000. The two were designed with different priorities, and that is what determines whether this conversion costs you quality, storage, or compatibility.
Developed by Xiph.Org Foundation in 2001, FLAC stores audio using FLAC. That codec choice sets the upper bound on what any conversion can preserve.
OGG, from Xiph.Org Foundation and dating to 2000, uses Vorbis and plays natively on 1 of the six platform categories we track. That combination is usually why people convert into it.
