What is
SND?
SND is the standard Unix audio format.
What is
M4A?
Because of its exceptional performance and quality, Advanced
Audio Coding (AAC) is at the core of the MPEG-4,
3GPP and 3GPP2
specifications and is the audio codec of choice for Internet, wireless and digital
broadcast arenas. AAC provides audio encoding that compresses much more efficiently
than older formats, such as MP3,
yet delivers quality rivaling that of uncompressed CD audio.
To encode MPEG-4 audio, you need to have River
Past MPEG-4 Booster Pack in addition to your audio software.
