.aiif -> shown as compression = none (pcm)
« on: June 27, 2023, 02:11:50 am »
.aiif files are shown as compression = none (pcm).

Is there a special reason behind that? Why not AIFF? (FLAC files are shown as compression = FLAC. )

Because FLAC is actually a compression, eg. it makes the audio smaller.

AIFF contains uncompressed audio, similar to eg. WAV, except that AIFF is more taggable.
