FLAC and WAV are both lossless audio format. Although there are no audible or tested differences on audio quality, their difference on other respects can not be neglected which will decide which audio format will be used under specific circumstances.

Compared with WAV, FLAC is compressed audio format which means FLAC is in smaller file size and suitable for storing information, like archiving CD. The stored information in FLAC format ensures that the original information could be recovered at any time if the original file is lost or damaged. And also FLAC can retain information tags by standard schemas. The big downside is that FLAC is not as widely supported by music systems, editing softwares, portable devices, etc as WAV. For example, FLAC is not supported by Windows Media Player or Apple devices, like iTunes, QuickTime, etc.

And WAV doesn't contain tags information in standard way. However, WAV has a big advantage, that is, WAV is a more widely used audio format and so can be edited or played by more devices or editing tools, like iTunes, Windows Media Player, QuickTime, etc.
