What is a OGG file?
Ogg is a free, patent‑unencumbered container maintained by the Xiph.Org Foundation. It most commonly encapsulates Vorbis or Opus audio but also supports Theora or Dirac video and embeds tags via VorbisComment. Ogg 1.0 shipped in 2000 following the ‘Danube’ code‑freeze after MP3 licensing scares. Firefox added native playback in 2008, spurring podcast adoption. Although WebM supplanted Ogg Theora for video, .ogg audio thrives in game engines and Fedora distributions.
What is a WAV file?
WAV is Microsoft and IBM’s RIFF‑based wrapper for PCM or ADPCM audio. It stores data in little‑endian ‘fmt ’ and ‘data’ chunks, making parsing trivial and ensuring universal DAW support. Introduced in 1991 alongside Windows 3.1’s Multimedia Extensions, WAV replaced raw VOC and AU formats. Its 4 GiB limit was a drawback until RF64 and W64 extensions arrived, but for most pop songs the cap is moot.
