- Description
- A CDDA (CD Digital Audio File) is a type of audio file extracted directly from an audio CD. This format is also known as CD-DA, which stands for Compact Disc Digital Audio. It is a standard format for audio CDs established by Philips and Sony in the Red Book specification. CDDA files represent uncompressed digital audio data in a linear PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) format.
- An MP3 file is an audio file saved in a compressed audio format developed by the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) that uses "Layer 3" audio compression. It is commonly used to store music and audiobooks with near-CD quality sound (stereo, 16-bit) and roughly 1/10 the size of a .WAV or .AIF file.
