No longer developed

APE DirectShow Filter is no longer updated by its developer - the last version here is from 2005. It may still run, but it gets no fixes for newer Windows versions or formats.

Maintained alternatives that may do the same job:

APE is a superior format, as it makes perfect, bit-for-bit copies of your music, unlike other common formats, which can save disc space only by affecting sound quality. 

With APE, you will enjoy perfect sound, identical to the original, while still saving plenty of memory space.

Another advantage of this format is that you can always decompress APE files and get the original files back, exactly as they were. 

This means that you will always be able to enjoy your original music collection again without needing to back it up.
