FILE FORMATS   Info about audio file formats Media       players       and       advanced       systems integrate   our   music   libraries   into   playlists   at home   and   on   our   mobile   devices,   and   makes it   possible   for   us   to   enjoy   music   on   demand in    the    format    it    was    recorded.    For    that reason   we   have   skipped   the   MP3   format   and offer   Songs   of    Perfect   Propriety    as   CD   quality (16     44)     and     High     Definition     24     96     (HD) downloads.   Our   aim   is   to   encourage   listeners to    trust    their    ears,    to    explore    listening    to music   with   has   much   detail   as   possible,   and to    discover    audio    as    it    is    intended    by    the artists and audio engineers to be received. Below   you   can   read   about   audio   file   formats and   learn   about   how   they   differ   from   each other    technically.    In    terms    of    determining the    difference    in    quality    between    fomats, only   your   own   ears   can   make   that   evaluation and which one is best for you. MP3      is    a    standard    format    for    compressing sound   into   a   very   small   file   (about   one-twelfth the   size   of   the   original   file)   perfect   for   storage when   disk   space   is   limited.   MP3   is   the   file   format most   commonly   used   by   digital   music   stores   and the    format    plays    on    all    media    devices    and computers.   MP3   has   bit   rates   ranging   from   128 (low),   192   or   320   (high)   kbit/s   and   a   sample   rate of    44    or    48    kHz.        Since    disk    space    is    steadily increasing    for    digital    devices,    high    resolution audio   is   more   in   demand   and   as   a   result      MP3   is used   less   for   listening   enjoyment   and   more   for practical   uses   such   as   previewing   tracks   or   for reference. AIFF    is   an   uncompressed   digital   audio   format with   bit   rates   and   sample   rates   ranging   from   16 bits   44   kHz   (CD   quality)   and   24   bits   96   kHz   (high- definition).  Windows:     plays   AIFF   with   iTunes   and   VLC Media Player  download VLC for Windows Mac:    plays   AIFF   with   iTunes   and   VLC   Media              Player download VLC for Mac OS X download VLC for iPhone iPod iPad FLAC     is    a    lossless    digital    audio    format.    This means   that   the   format   does   not   lose   data   like other   types   of   compressed   audio   files   (ex.   MP3). Lossless   compression   still   retains   the   resolution of   a   standard   CD   (16   44   kHz)   and   high-definition audio   (24   96   kHz).      The   advantage   FLAC   is   that   it takes   up   less   disc   space   on   your   computer   than an     AIFF     and     will     play     gapless     audio,     an advantage     for     albums     and     playlists     which feature segues between tracks. Smartphones    &    Android    play     FLAC    with the    VLC    app    download    free    VLC    app    on Google    Play     and    Power    Amp    buy    Power Amp on Google Play Windows:  plays FLAC with VLC Media Player  download VLC for Windows and with Windows Media Player using a modification which you can read about on wiki-how http://www.wikihow.com/Play- FLAC-Files Mac: plays FLAC with iTunes and VLC Media Player download VLC for Mac OS X download VLC for iPhone iPod iPad We   recommend   the   VLC   player   since   it   plays   all formats      (except      .wav      files)      and      can      be downloaded   to   a   wide   range   of      devices.      This ability   to   play   just   about   anything   is   one   of   the trademarks   of   VLC   software.   The   performance on   Winows   and   Mac   computers   is   long   standing and   reliable,   but   the   app   for   Android   remains under    active    development    so    there    is    still    a chance    of    running    into    unexpected    bugs.    You may   want   to   try   it   anyway   and   test   it   for   yourself to compare it to other media player options.
