Windows Media Audio (.wma)

The WMA file extension, Windows Media Audio, developed by Microsoft in 1999, offers high-quality audio at lower bitrates compared to MP3. It includes sub-formats like WMA Pro for high-resolution audio, WMA Lossless for perfect sound preservation, and WMA Voice for efficient spoken word compression. Despite its excellent audio quality and efficient compression, WMA's proprietary nature limits its support outside the Windows ecosystem.
