- Description
- The MPA file format, standing for MPEG-2 Audio File, is designed to store audio data compressed using the MPEG-2 Audio coding standard. This format is a successor to the MPEG-1 standard, offering enhancements like improved audio quality and support for multiple audio channels, thus enabling surround sound experiences. MPA files are commonly used for both music and video soundtracks due to their efficient compression, which preserves sound quality while reducing file size significantly.
- An OGG file is a compressed audio file that uses free, unpatented Ogg Vorbis audio compression. It is similar to an .MP3 file, but sounds better than an MP3 file of equal size, and may include song metadata, such as artist information and track data. OGG files are supported by many software music players and some portable music players.
