Audio Interchange File Format (.aiff)

The AIFF file extension, Audio Interchange File Format, developed by Apple Inc., is a high-caliber audio format designed for optimal sound storage on personal computers and electronic devices. Utilizing uncompressed pulse-code modulation, ensures unparalleled audio clarity, though with significant file sizes. AIFF further supports extra data for music-related uses and provides a compressed form, AIFF-C, to harmonize audio quality with file size efficiency.

MPEG-4 Audio (.m4a)

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.
