Consequently, downloading lossless audio files takes up significantly more space on your device compared to compressed formats.

This is because lossless audio maintains the original quality of the sound without any compression, resulting in larger file sizes.

In contrast, compressed audio formats reduce file size by removing some data, but this often comes at a cost to sound quality.
