- xWMA is a container format for compressed audio data developed by Microsoft, based on Windows Media Audio (WMA) compression but with a simplified header structure optimized for streaming and playback via the XAudio2 API. It is primarily used in Xbox and Windows game development to store sound effects and music efficiently.
- OGA is an audio file format that can be created using various compression algorithms such as Ogg FLAC, Ghost, and Ogg PCM. Ogg Vorbis or Speex compression can also be used but it is not recommended by Xiph.Org.
