AIFF and OGG explained

AIFF is Apple's uncompressed audio format, functionally equivalent to WAV but with better metadata support and big-endian byte order.

OGG here means Ogg Vorbis, a royalty-free lossy codec that predates Opus. It is competitive with AAC and remains common in games.

Where AIFF files come from
Mac audio production and older Apple software.
Where OGG is used
Game audio, Spotify's older streams and open-source projects.

AIFF vs OGG

The two formats solve different problems, which is why converting between them involves trade-offs rather than a straight upgrade.

AIFF is stronger at
Uncompressed and lossless. Better metadata handling than WAV. Standard in Mac audio workflows.
OGG is stronger at
Royalty-free. Good quality per bit. Well supported in game engines and browsers.

Why convert AIFF to OGG?

People make this switch when they run into the limits of AIFF: distribution, or interchange with Windows tools where WAV is safer. OGG is the better fit when game development or an open-source pipeline.

There is also a size argument: AIFF stores data with little or no compression, so the OGG version is normally dramatically smaller for the same content.

AIFF limitations that prompt the switch
Very large files. Less universally supported than WAV.
What you give up
Apple devices do not support it natively. Largely superseded by Opus.

Does converting AIFF to OGG reduce quality?

AIFF stores your data exactly; OGG does not. Some detail is discarded permanently in exchange for a much smaller file, which is usually the right trade for sharing and publishing. Keep your AIFF original if it is the only copy — the conversion cannot be undone.
