An audio file format is a file format for storing digital audio data on a computer system. The bit layout of the audio data (excluding metadata ) is called the audio coding format and can be uncompressed, or compressed to reduce the file size, often using lossy compression .
The 'Music' category is merely a guideline on commercialized uses of a particular format, not a technical assessment of its capabilities. For example, MP3 and AAC dominate the personal audio market in terms of market share, though many other formats are comparably well suited to fill this role from a purely technical standpoint.

The standard dictd [7] server made by the DICT Development Group [1] uses a special dict file format. It comprises two files, a .index file and a .dict file (or .dict.dz if compressed). These files are usually generated by a program called dictfmt. For example, the Unix command:
Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) is an audio coding standard for lossy digital audio compression.It was designed to be the successor of the MP3 format and generally achieves higher sound quality than MP3 at the same bit rate.
The Meridian Lossless Packing logo The Advanced Resolution logo. Meridian Lossless Packing, also known as Packed PCM (PPCM), [citation needed] is a lossless compression technique for PCM audio data developed by Meridian Audio, Ltd. MLP is the standard lossless compression method for DVD-Audio content [1] (often advertised with the Advanced Resolution logo) and typically provides about 1.5:1 ...
The Diccionario de la lengua española [a] (DLE; [b] English: Dictionary of the Spanish language) is the authoritative dictionary of the Spanish language.

The ADX toolkit also includes a sibling format, AHX, which uses a variant of MPEG-2 audio intended specifically for voice recordings and a packaging archive, AFS, for bundling multiple CRI ADX and AHX tracks into a single container file. Version 2 of the format (ADX2) uses the HCA and HCA-MX extension, which are usually bundled into a container ...
