Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) is a digital audio file format designed to provide superior sound quality and compression efficiency compared to older formats like MP3. Developed in the late 1990s by a consortium of companies, including Fraunhofer IIS, Dolby, and Sony, AAC has become the standard audio format for various platforms, including Apple's iTunes and YouTube. It is widely used in streaming, broadcasting, and multimedia applications due to its ability to deliver high-fidelity audio at lower bit rates, making it ideal for bandwidth-constrained environments.
The M4A file extension, standing for MPEG-4 Audio, is a digital audio format developed by Apple in the early 2000s as part of the MPEG-4 standard. It utilizes Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) or Apple Lossless Audio Codec (ALAC) for efficient compression, offering high-quality audio at lower bitrates. M4A files are commonly used for storing music, audiobooks, and podcasts, particularly within Apple's ecosystem, including iTunes and iPod. This format emerged to provide better sound quality and smaller file sizes compared to MP3, aiming to become the new standard in audio compression.
