MP3
MP3 is the most popular audio storage format in use today. MP3 files typically store songs, music and recordings. Unlike other formats, MP3 stores audio in a much smaller file size to save device memory. It remains one of the most widely supported file formats and can be played on virtually all media players on all devices.
The quality of an MP3 file can vary, because it depends on the "bit rate" used for compression. Common bit rates are 128, 192 and 256 kbps. To find out the bit rate of your MP3 file, check its file information in your media player or file explorer.
WMA
WMA (Windows Media Audio) files are mainly used for streaming music on the web. But they can also be used for storing voice recordings or sound effects. The benefit of WMA files is their high quality audio compared to rivaling formats like MP3.
Since it is developed by Microsoft, WMA files can only be opened on Windows devices. Opening WMA on Mac or Linux requires downloading third-party media players, or conversion to a different format. Converting MP3 to WMA may benefit users who mainly use Windows devices and prefer WMA’s audio quality.
