2. Comparison of audio coding formats - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_audio_coding...

   For example, MP3 and AAC dominate the personal audio market in terms of market share, though many other formats are comparably well suited to fill this role from a purely technical standpoint. First public release date is first of either specification publishing or source releasing, or in the case of closed-specification, closed-source codecs ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Media_Audio

   Windows Media Audio ( WMA) is a series of audio codecs and their corresponding audio coding formats developed by Microsoft. It is a proprietary technology that forms part of the Windows Media framework. WMA consists of four distinct codecs. The original WMA codec, known simply as WMA, was conceived as a competitor to the popular MP3 and ...

4. Audio file format - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_file_format

   An audio file format is a file format for storing digital audio data on a computer system. The bit layout of the audio data (excluding metadata) is called the audio coding format and can be uncompressed, or compressed to reduce the file size, often using lossy compression. The data can be a raw bitstream in an audio coding format, but it is ...

5. WAV - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WAV

   WAV is a file format for a computer to use that cannot be understood by most CD players directly. To record WAV files to an Audio CD the file headers must be stripped, the contents must be transcoded if not already stored as PCM, and the PCM data written directly to the disc as individual tracks with zero-padding added to match the CD's sector ...

   The most common file extensions for ASF files are extension .WMA (audio-only files using Windows Media Audio, with MIME-type audio/x-ms-wma) and .WMV (files containing video, using the Windows Media Audio and Video codecs, with MIME-type video/x-ms-asf). These files are identical to the old .ASF files but for their extension and MIME-type. The ...

8. Timeline of audio formats - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_audio_formats

   Timeline of audio formats. An audio format is a medium for sound recording and reproduction. The term is applied to both the physical recording media and the recording formats of the audio content —in computer science it is often limited to the audio file format, but its wider use usually refers to the physical method used to store the data.

9. Advanced Audio Coding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Audio_Coding

   Advanced Audio Coding is designed to be the successor of the MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3, known as MP3 format, which was specified by ISO / IEC in 11172-3 ( MPEG-1 Audio) and 13818-3 ( MPEG-2 Audio). Blind tests in the late 1990s showed that AAC demonstrated greater sound quality and transparency than MP3 for files coded at the same bit rate.
