FLV vs M4R
Only the sound is kept — the picture is dropped, so the M4R file is far smaller than the FLV video.

About FLV and M4R
FLV: FLV is the Flash Video format that powered early YouTube. Flash is gone, so FLV files usually need converting to play today.
M4R: M4R is the iPhone ringtone format. It is an AAC audio file (the same as M4A) with a different extension, and iOS only accepts ringtones up to 30–40 seconds long.
