| Description | 🔵 OGG is a compressed audio file format or file extension used to hold audio data. It was developed by Xiph.Org Foundation and can include track and artist information and metadata. The OGG extension was developed to replace proprietary audio formats like mp3, VQF and AAC. They are compressed to a smaller size than mp3, which means less bandwidth and storage requirements. OGG files also offer better sound quality than mp3 files of the same size. Most players, such as VLC and Windows Media Player, can open and play OGG files. |

You can convert WAV, WMA or MP3 to OGG, create a new OGG file, convert a playlist/folder or rip a CD/track to OGG. Simply right click on the file and select “convert to” then “OGG” on the menu that pops up. You can also use audio converter software to create OGG files from proprietary formats. To open an OGG file, use any music and audio software like VLC, Windows Media Player, Miro, MPlayer, Adobe Audition, Audials One, Xion, etc. You can also drag OGG files into Google Chrome or open it online. GPS devices can open OGG files although Apple devices don’t support the format, so you’ll need to download an app like VLC or OPlayer.

Although OGG audio files are free, unpatented, and smaller than MP3, not many portable players support the format. You’ll need to convert OGG to MP3 or other formats that are supported by your device. Some programs also don’t allow saving in OGG so you might need to convert back to OGG once you are done working on the audio file. There are many advantages to OGG. Their smaller size means you need less storage space and bandwidth when streaming. Reports have also shown that OGG files offer better sound quality than MP3 files of the same size. They are perfect for complex, high-frequency sounds and give creators and other users the ability to work with multimedia for free. |

| Description | 🔵 OGA files are the audio-only element of the OGG multimedia file system. If you were accessing an OGA file before 2007, it would probably have appeared on your PC as a document with .ogg extension. However, since the OGG format creator, Xiph.Org Foundation, created other extensions to cater to specific data types, multimedia files are now stored with data-specific extensions like .ogv, .oga, .ogm, .ogx, all under the OGG file system. In effect, instead of having a media file containing audio, video, text, and metadata all encoded into a chunk, each data type is encoded separately with a specific extension. |
| Technical details | 🔵 Since the OGG file system is open source, the audio-only OGA files can be written or modified using Ogg FLAC, OggPCM, Ogg Vorbis, or Speex, the last two not having favorable reviews. The Xiph.Org Foundation made a similar software to the public; the software pack makes it possible for open-source or commercial Windows applications to utilize OGA files without any conflict. |
