The Audio Interchange File Format (AIFF) is a file format for storing high-quality audio data. It was developed by Apple Inc. in 1987 and is used commonly in the Mac OS operating system and its associated applications, though it can be found on other platforms as well. An AIFF file can store many different types of audio data, including samples taken from analog sources such as vinyl records and standard CD-quality audio. AIFF files are uncompressed, making them larger than lossy compressed formats like MP3 and AAC -- but also providing better audio quality overall. Additionally, AIFF supports metadata tags like artist name and track title, allowing audio players to quickly identify the audio file's contents. While less common today than MP3 and other formats, AIFF still enjoys a following among audiophiles, musicians, and other audio professionals. | The 3G2 file format is a multimedia container developed by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). It is most commonly used to contain audio and video recorded by mobile phones, as well as images, subtitles and other data. 3G2 files are based on the MPEG-4 Part 12 format, which offers advanced features such as multi-channel audio support, network streaming and multiplexing of multiple media streams. 3G2 files have the file extension .3g2 and can be opened with various media players and editors, such as Windows Media Player, VLC media player and Adobe Premiere Pro. Additionally, some mobile phone applications are able to play back 3G2 files. |
