How to tunr FLAC into Apple Lossless

Max is the way to go, I use flac on my pc at home and apple lossless on my mac at work. My 8 way mac pro processes 8 songs at a time and can rip through gig's of files in a flash. The best part is that unlike some programs on the pc side max transcoded files are compatible with itunes sharing so you can listen to them on other computers or a itv.

Is AIFF a lossless format or is that full size like WAC files? I ask becasue if it is not lossless, I'm not sure I have the HD space to do the conversion, unless I do a few at a time I guess.

I meant WAV..

AIFF files are 'full size.'

Apple Lossless files take up about half the space of AIFF or WAV files.

Ok, thanks.....one more question--When choosing AIFF as the encoder, does it matter if I choose linear PCM 16 bit or linear PCM 24 bit under encoder settings?
