About AAC and MP3
AAC: AAC is the successor to MP3 and the audio codec behind YouTube, iTunes and most streaming services. A .aac file stores the raw AAC stream without an MP4 wrapper.
MP3: MP3 is the most widely supported audio format in the world. It uses lossy compression to make music and voice files small enough to share, while keeping quality good enough for everyday listening.
