I think apple is pushing Spotify with their lossless for free. From what I’ve ready Spotify are having licensing issues with it at the moment and that’s the only thing holding it up. The announced it 2 years ago now.

Flac is an open source project with no licensing fees or royalties so either you mean it just costs more to get Tracks in flac from Production Companies or they're having trouble acquiring the Storage Facilities needed to store the significant increase in size of their 90+ million track library. Not all of which even exist in flac.
