A great news here!! Windows 10 was earlier confirmed coming with native FLAC support, while there was no news about a top-asked feature. Yes, we are talking about gapless audio playback feature. But the Build 2015 presentation slides confirm that Microsoft has heard customer feedback well and has responded by making it a native feature. The playlist APIs will automatically provide gapless transitions.
