I'll forever resent and avoid using Apple Lossless (AKA ALAC), because it was transparently invented by Apple to mimic the functionality of the already-existing FLAC so that Apple-bundled software could store music in a technically comparable format yet not support the emerging losslessly-compressed PCM standard used by absolutely everyone but Apple, FLAC.
This was obviously done to make it painful for users habituated to using Apple's music software to buy music elsewhere.
