MP3 (MPEG 1, Audio Layer 3)

MP3 is considered one of the most popular codec (encoder/decoder) for storing and transferring music.

Though it employs a “lossy” compression system that removes signal components judged to be inaudible, MP3 still manages to deliver reasonable sound quality in files that are 80 to 90% smaller than comparable uncompressed WAV files.

You can select varying amounts of compression when creating MP3 files.
