Streaming: these are the benefits of AAC Plus over MP3
Many of our clients ask and ask us about the differences in streaming qualities.
In the world, in recent years there has been a substantial improvement in the service, because many streaming providers (like us) have moved from MP3 servers to AAC Plus, notably superior.
It is important to note that both formats are used to transmit a signal on the internet and both are useful for the practical purposes of transmitting. But the question is, which one is the most convenient?
THE MP3 is a stable and consolidated format. It is a kind of compressed digital audio quality.
The MP3 file format allows you to select the compression ratio of the source file. Margins at the domestic level are between 8 Kbps and 340 Kbps, with 128 Kbps being the transfer rate equivalent to CD quality.
Bitrate is the unit of measure for the rate of transfer of reading data from an MP3 file. The higher bitrate an MP3 file has, the greater the amount of data a player can obtain in the unit of time (Second).
The more instrumental content or quality an MP3 audio file contains (sound effects, recorded audio tracks, high frequencies, low frequencies, etc.), the higher the transfer rate it will require to fully reproduce the information, and at this point, it is where it is defined The quality of the MP3 file, since if we compress that file, we reduce that bandwidth, we will be sacrificing some of that data, resulting in loss of information that will influence the final result of the MP3 conversion.
AAC +: The best streaming, always
The AAC Plus format allows, with the same playback quality as an MP3, to save up to 30% of memory space with respect to it. Files encoded in AAC format allow you to lower the file upload speed by two steps without losing sound quality.
The AAC was designed in order to replace the MP3. For the same bitrate (which is measured in kbps) and the same MP3 file size, the AAC format is more stable and has more quality, producing a more crystalline sound.
The bit rate in the AAC format is approximately twice the speed in the MP3 format. For example: 32 kbps in AAC is equivalent to 128 kbps in mp3, so you get more quality in less space.
The advantages are:
Superior audio quality for the same bitrate (kbps).
Transmit at low kbps but with excellent sound (ex 32kbps sound higher than 96kbps quality cd type)
That from any internet connection they listen to you (including switched connections or mobile internet)
Your listeners will not need Broadband to listen to you
You will not need a super internet connection to transmit
