Pristine Audio now does everything in Flac and some items are available as 24 bit Flac downloads. There are a number of other commercial sites as well, including Linn. There are some very interesting items from Smithsonian Global. Also there are free downloads in Flac, Shorten and Ape from the Internet Archive, Opera Share &c.

I am intrigued to find that at least one website (http://www.hdtracks.com)
is selling CD-quality music tracks, with FLAC as a format option, and no
DRM. I'm curious whether anyone else is using FLAC commercially. This is
obviously only a case or two, but would this not bode well for the future
of the format?
