Flac?

Whats the best player for playing flac audio files?

Most of the classical stuff Im downloading is in this format and windows media player tends to crash after tracks finish and itunes wont play them...

Never heard of that format before. Have you tried searching Google?

Its bigger files than mp3, less compression, better sound quality...

suppose that would be the sensible thing looking it up but Im lazy.

i used to use plug-ins for winamp that would let you play shn and flac files, then stopped using winamp. it should be pretty easy to find plug ins for whatever program you use most. flac rules.
