Does anyone have good site recommendations for lossless files such as flac's specifically for music.

While Soulseek is a great option, would recommend Deemix as the primary download method unless Deezer hosted album is some very bad remaster and you need to hunt down older release. You either need a premium account or find something called "ARL cookie" to download above 128 kbps MP3.

Worth noting that the absolute best quality Deezer has is 44,1kHz 16-bit lossless, and most songs there are MP3 anyway.

If this is good enough for you, absolutely go for it. If you're looking to download high-quality music from a streming service, you can use tidal-dl (or tidal-gui for more convenience) combined with Tidal - though it's worth noting Tidal has been subject to some controversies regarding some of the master quality albums, too.

Can't comment on FLAC quality / availability to be honest because I download only 320 kbps MP3. I just know there is a quality setting for it.
