[about]
If a sound file has the filename extension ".m4a", then it's either an
AAC sound file or an ALAC sound file.  AAC is a compressed (and lossy)
format. ALAC is a lossless format.

ALAC is short for Apple Lossless Audio Codec. This format uses a loss-
less audio compression scheme created by Apple. "alac" can decode some
ALAC files;  specifically, mono or stereo files that use a 16-bit sam-
ple  size.  Presently,  files that use  more than  two channels aren't
supported.

Basic commands of the form  "alac file" decode a  specified  ALAC file
and send the resulting data to the standard-output stream in  WAV for-
mat. For other modes, see the "man" page.
