icloud doesn't modify files you upload.

aac is not lossless, although there is no audible difference.

alac and flac are lossless, which means what you get back is bit for
bit identical to what went in.

it can be mathematically proven that digital audio is better in every
metric than vinyl, which means it can perfectly reproduce everything
vinyl is capable of recording, however, limiting it to vinyl would mean
losing all of its advantages. in the best case, it's much better.

the same is true for digital cameras and film.
