what are uncompressed audio formats?
155704
Uncompressed audio: This is an audio file that has no compression applied to it. The sound in uncompressed audio files remains the same as when it was recorded. Examples include PCM, AIFF and WAV formats.

All audio on YouTube is compressed (approximately to around 126 kbps AAC), which in itself isn't such a bad thing; AAC compression can sound ok at relatively low bitrates. It becomes a problem, however, when poorly compressed videos are used as source files – effectively compressing the audio twice.

CDs offer full 44.1kHz uncompressed digital audio. Here's what that means, according to “What Data Compression Does To Your Music” (Sound On Sound), which offers a very detailed look at the science behind file compression: The audio is stored digitally on a CD via a technique known as PCM, or Pulse Code Modulation.

While it depended on the recording, un-decoded MQA file did not sound worse than the original native file and in some cases, the un-decoded MQA version sounded better.” The implication is that you don't need an MQA-capable DAC to feel the benefit of an MQA file.

Ogg Vorbis is a fully open, non-proprietary, patent-and-royalty-free, general-purpose compressed audio format for mid to high quality (8kHz-48.0kHz, 16+ bit, polyphonic) audio and music at fixed and variable bitrates from 16 to 128 kbps/channel.

When comparing bitrate, or the amount of data transferred per second, High-Resolution Audio's bitrate (9,216 kbps) is nearly seven times higher than that of CDs (1,411 kbps) and almost 29 times higher than that of MP3s (320 kbps). And the higher the bitrate, the more accurately the signal is measured.

There should be no difference audibly between a lossless format like FLAC and an uncompressed format like AIFF. Plus you get the benefit of a lower storage requirement, somewhere between 30 and 40% less on avaerage. The difference is the size of the files. Lossless files take up half the space of the originals.

Digital audio and video has a sample rate, bit depth and bit rate. They are usually compressed to reduce file size and stream more efficiently over networks. Compression can be lossy or lossless.
