M4A — MPEG-4 Audio File
| File extension | .m4a |
|---|---|
| File category | audio |
| Programs | Apple iTunes VLC media player Windows Media Player foobar2000 Winamp |
| Tech description | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M4A |
| MIME type | audio/mp4 audio/x-m4a |
| Developer | Apple Inc. |
M4A is an audio-only file container based on the MPEG-4 standard, introduced by Apple in 2004. The .m4a extension distinguishes audio-only files from .mp4 files that contain video. M4A files are most commonly encoded with the AAC codec, offering better audio quality than MP3 at the same file size. Lossless encoding using Apple Lossless (ALAC) is also possible within the M4A container. M4A is the default format for music purchased from the iTunes Store and Apple Music. It is natively supported on all Apple devices, and plays on Android, Windows, macOS, VLC, foobar2000, and Windows Media Player.

AU format for reliable data storage
| File extension | .au .snd |

| Tech description | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Au_file_format |
| MIME type | audio/basic audio/au |
| Developer | Sun Microsystems |
This audio format was developed by Sun Microsystems. It is intended for storing audio files; the file itself consists of three components: the header, the annotation unit, and the audio file itself. What distinguishes this format is the small file size, due to which its sound quality is low. It can be converted into other formats, such as mp3 or MPEG. Although this format is mostly used on personal computers that are powered by operating systems Sun or Unix, AU files can also be opened using other audio players.
