It is not difficult to make copies of vinyl records. All you need is an audio output from a receiver, a computer, and recording software (such as GarageBand or Logic Pro).
You’d be surprised how easy and relatively cheap it is to rip vinyl to MP3.
I haven’t worked with FLAC since the hardware I own utilizes AIFF & WAV raw recording file formats. Exporting I typically use MP3 with a sample rate of 128Kbps/44.1KHz. I haven’t tried FLAC yet. I might try to do that next opportunity to see if the file sizes are comparable (there’s a size limit when I upload DJ mixes to Mixcloud).

But MP3 is a lossy format 🤨
That’s why I usually record to AIFF or WAV since it’s lossless
Why not FLAC though?
