OGG and AIFF explained
OGG here means Ogg Vorbis, a royalty-free lossy codec that predates Opus. It is competitive with AAC and remains common in games.
AIFF is Apple's uncompressed audio format, functionally equivalent to WAV but with better metadata support and big-endian byte order.
- Where OGG files come from
- Game audio, Spotify's older streams and open-source projects.
- Where AIFF is used
- Mac audio production and older Apple software.
