MP3 vs WAV -- Which Format Should You Choose?

MP3 compresses audio to reduce file size. A 4-minute song produces roughly a 5MB MP3 file at 192kbps. This quality level is indistinguishable from the original for most listeners. MP3 works on every device and music player.

WAV stores audio without compression. The same 4-minute song produces a 40MB WAV file. WAV preserves every detail of the audio signal. Use WAV if you plan to edit the audio in software like Audacity, GarageBand, or Adobe Audition.
