What are the data rates for streaming FLAC?
So Apple uses ALAC, which is it’s own version. Do you mean how much data is used when streaming? If so, I’m not sure. If you mean what’s available it’s:
High Quality (AAC 256 Kbps)
Lossless (ALAC up to 24-bit/48 kHz)
Hi-Res (ALAC up to 24-bit/192 kHz)
TBF these days ALAC is not that much different from FLAC and equally lossless and open source/royalty free. It's just that ALAC as used prioritizes file size over decode speed.
