M4A files usually have a stereo bit rate of 128kbps, 192kbps or 256kbps. (By the way, bit rate refers to the amount of information that is transmitted within a given amount of time through a digital network. The common way to measure the bit rate is in kbits \/ s and Mbps, that is kilobytes and megabytes per second. In general, it doesn&#8217;t matter which unit you use, the higher the number, the higher the speed or the better quality). If you are familiar with music coding, it is advisable to save the music in M4A at 192kbps so that we can obtain high quality and a manageable file. For more information, see the comparison below.<\/p>\n<p>Quality: For obvious reasons an M4A file with ALAC compression has the best quality since nothing of the original audio signal will be lost. And even for a file encoded with AAC compression with losses, tests indicate that it still gives better sound quality than MP3 files encoded at the same bit rates, especially when the bit rate is equal to or less than 128kbps.<\/p>\n<p>File size: The size of the file and its quality are directly related to the bit rate. When it goes up, it will also increase the sound quality as well as the file size. For example, to obtain the same quality, an MP3 song needs to be encoded around 192kbps, while one in M4A is enough with 128kbps, which translates into a smaller file size.<\/p>\n<p>Compatibility: Without a doubt, MP3 is still the norm in the audio industry. Almost all software and hardware is compatible with it. Instead, M4A files can only be read on PC, iPod, iTunes and other Apple devices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>M4A is an extension used to represent a compressed audio file in an MPEG-4 container.
