This...if you don't know what VLC is, VideoLan will help with the google search.

I was never a fan of iTunes, but I learned that sometimes its not a bad idea to conform when everyone else in the world uses it, it's integrated into tractor, I need it for my phone, etc. Might as well just use and learn to live with it.

That's the one big reason I stay away from FLAC, and other non-supported in itunes kinds of files. Not that I don't know their worth... but I moved from WinAmp on a PC over integrating everything over to iTunes.
I just can't be bothered to have ANOTHER program in which to deal with stuff in. Serato and iTunes is enough for me.

Aww man, you shouldn't hate on FLAC, it's a quality lossless codec that does a great job at what it does. It's been around for years.
I do get your point though, having another program on your computer just to play a file is a pain. VLC is nice though because it plays video files too. It's probably the best video player out there in my opinion. I have it on every computer I own.
It doesn't make a bad audio player either - I use it mostly to listen to my recordings, where I don't want to import them into iTunes, nor open them in my music editor - just give them a quick once off and then be done with them.nope.
