Windows Media Audio File

| Description | 🔵 WMA, a format of audio stream coding introduced by Microsoft in 1999, has been the foundation for Windows Media. Its main purpose is to store and distribute audio content. Initially considered a viable alternative to MP3, it lost some significance with the emergence of AAC. Unlike MP3, WMA can be installed alongside other system codecs of Windows 9x.WMA is known for its good compression quality, making it suitable for many audio players, mobile devices, and Playstations. However, due to its proprietary nature, files in this format may not play back with satisfactory quality on other platforms. The latest version allows for multi-channel coding of large audio files and voice data. Additionally, advancements in technology have reduced the coding delay significantly. |
| Technical details | 🔵 The term WMA is used to refer to both the file format and the codec. There are several types of the format: - WMA, which is similar to MP3; - WMA Pro, offering high-quality sound with a wide range of channels; - WMA Lossless, providing lossless compression; - WMA Voice, designed for compressing voice content into low bitrate files. According to Microsoft programmers, an audio file with a bitrate of 64 Kbit/s has comparable sound clarity to tracks from a CD. However, not all advanced users agree with this assessment. WMA files are often generated in Advanced Systems Format, which can contain both audio and video content. One limitation is the inability to support bitrates higher than 160 Kbit/s. |

iPhone Ringtone File
| Extension | .m4r |
| Category | 🔵 audio |
| Programs | 🔵 Apple QuickTime Player |
| Main program | 🔵 Apple iTunes |
| Description | 🔵 This format is used in smartphones of the iPhone series. Mainly, this format is an AAC and M4A file. Not all audio files from the iTunes store can be converted to M4R. When syncing with an iPhone and a computer, these files are automatically transferred to the phone. These files can be purchased or downloaded from iTunes. Additionally, audio files in other formats can be converted to the M4R format. This format ensures the best possible ringtone for iPhone. |
| Technical details | 🔵 M4R differs from MP3 due to its compression method. This format is part of the MPEG-4 standard, specifically under the ISO-IEC standard 14495-3. Despite employing auditory masking, the lossy compression of M4R is comparable to AAC and MP3 files. It works by reducing audio size by eliminating data and sounds that are imperceptible to the human ear. This allows M4R to create high-quality audio files without taking up a lot of storage space. Users can select any audio of their choice for use, such as a ringtone or alert tone. |
