About MP3/WMA/AAC
What is MP3?
MP3, whose official name is “MPEG-1, 2, 2.5 Audio Layer 3,” is a
compression standard prescribed by the ISO, the International
Standardization Organization and MPEG which is a joint activity
institution of the IEC.
MP3 files contain compressed audio data. MP3 encoding is
capable of compressing audio data at extremely high ratios,
reducing the size of music files to as much as one-tenth
their original size. This is achieved while still maintaining
near CD quality. The MP3 format realises such high
compression ratios by eliminating the sounds that are either
inaudible to the human ear or masked by other sounds.
What is WMA?
WMA, or “Windows Media™ Audio,” is compressed audio data.
WMA is similar to MP3 audio data and can achieve CD quality
so
und with small file sizes.
What is AAC?
AAC is the abbreviation for “Advanced Audio Coding,” and is a
b
asic format of audio compression used by MPEG2 or MPEG4.
