For collectors, a FLAC file is future-proof. You can convert FLAC to any format (Apple Lossless, WAV, AIFF) without generation loss. Having Muskaan in FLAC means you are preserving a piece of 2004 Bollywood history exactly as Rahman heard it in the mastering suite.
If you are posting this on Reddit (e.g., r/audiophilemusic or r/BollywoodMusic), use Option 2 but add a personal story (e.g., "I found this old CD at a market in Delhi..." ) to drive engagement.
Listeners aged 30–40 recall Muskaan as a Doordarshan TV staple or a cousin’s purchased CD. FLAC offers a “time capsule” effect: lossless audio heightens emotional authenticity.
