Winamp: Preferences -> Plug-ins -> Output -> NullSoft Disk Writer plug-in

Set output dir, press play, enjoy.

Nice resource! They also have some acapella vocals waiting to be destroyed/humiliated

If in winblow$, open a command prompt in the direcotry where the files exist
and type the following. If flac is not in your path, either type the full path to flac or
copy it into the directory.

flac.exe -d filename.flac

or if there are many files, you could put the whole list in a text file...

flac.exe -d filename1.flac
flac.exe -d filename2.flac
flac.exe -d filename3.flac
pause

then rename the text file with a .bat extention. Then run the file.
You might need to first change the Folder Options/ View settings in
windows explorer by unchecking Hide extensions for known file types
and possibly some other options. Otherwise renaming a .txt to a .bat
will not change the file type, it just changes the name of the to filename.bat.txt.


or create a drop file. Again you might need to change the settings like above.
Create file with teh following:

flac.exe -d %1
pause

save and rename with a .bat extension. Then drag and drop the flac
onto the bat. The pause is optional.


If in linux, open a terminal where the files reside..

flac -d filename.flac

or create a file with multiple files...

flac -d filename1.flac
flac -d filename2.flac
flac -d filename3.flac

save, then run it in a terminal with...

sh filename

or if you want to get fancy  
chmod 755 filename and then run the file...

./filename


To see all the options...
flac --help

or to write them to a file...
flac --help > flac-help.txt

hope this helps,

cheers
