MP4
MP4 is one of the most compatible video file formats. You can upload MP4 files to YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, Facebook, and other social media sites. You can also play MP4 files with Windows Media Player, VLC, QuickTime, iPhone, iPad, Android, and almost all media players.
MP4 files are popular because they can be viewed almost anywhere, and even with high-quality video, the file sizes remain relatively small, making them easy to share. MP4 is short for 'MPEG4', and is a format that normally contains video and audio, but can also be used to store images and subtitles.
AAC
AAC files are used for storing audio and music data in a higher quality. Due to improvements made to the AAC file, it has one-off the best sound qualities amongst audio file formats. AAC is also the default format for Apple's iTunes and iTunes Store. You can open AAC files on iTunes, Windows Media Player and VLC Media Player. Although AAC files can use the .aac extension, many AAC files are saved with the .m4a extension. This doesn't change the file type, but only the extension format. You can still open it as an AAC file, because AAC refers to the compression type. Its full name is 'Advanced Audio Coding' (AAC).
