Lossy encoders like MP3, Ogg Vorbis, AAC etc can throw away as
much data as is necessary to meet a bitrate goal.
FLAC however, is a **lossless** encoder. It makes the smallest
file it can without losing any information. Because it has a
goalof being lossless, it cannot even attempt to meet a bitrate
target.
