Monkey’s Audio
Unlike traditional methods such as mp3, ogg, or lqt that permanently discard quality to save space, Monkey’s Audio only makes perfect , bit-for-bit copies of your music. That means your audio files always sound perfect exactly the same as the original. Even though the sound is perfect, it still saves a lot of space. (you can think of it as a beefed-up Winzip for your music).
FLAC
FLAC stands for Free Lossless Audio Codec being in fact similar to the MP3 format but lossless, which means that audio is compressed in FLAC without any loss in quality.
VoxWare MetaSound Audio Codec
Voxware provides high-quality sound using low- to mid-range bit rates. It comes with a variety of mono and stereo audio formats to choose from depending on your network bandwidth. It is also suitable for encoding mono voice-only content at extremely low bit-rates.
