About WAV and MP3
WAV: WAV stores uncompressed PCM audio, so it keeps every bit of the original sound. Files are large, but WAV is the standard for audio editing, studios and professional software.
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.
