- Description
- The M4V file format is a video container format developed by Apple and is very similar to the MP4 format, with the primary difference being the optional Apple Digital Rights Management (DRM) protection. M4V files are commonly used for TV episodes, movies, and music videos in the iTunes Store. These files can be played on Apple devices such as iPhones, iPads, and iPods, as well as on PCs using iTunes or other compatible media players.
- A WEBM file is a compressed video saved in the WebM format, an open, high-quality video standard. It stores video compressed using VP8 technology and audio compressed using Ogg Vorbis compression. WEBM files are commonly used for delivering online videos using the HTML5 <video> tag.
