What is a AAC file?
AAC, or Advanced Audio Coding, is a widely used audio format known for delivering high-quality sound at relatively low bitrates. Developed as the successor to MP3, it became popular for streaming and digital distribution thanks to its efficient compression algorithms and broad device support.
