FLAC is variable bitrate, but the bitrate is determined by how efficiently the data can be compressed while maintaining 100% data integrity.

...ecommendations (in the form of a proposal) for an updatedand consistent, codified standard for FLAC tags. Rather than just create havoc by going off on our own, we would like to seek input and acceptance of this revision by the xiph.org community. What is the best way to go about this?
