Overview
MPG/MPEG is a file extension that uses MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 codecs for video and audio files. The lossy compression in this format leads to enhancement of the streaming and downloading speed. That is why it is very popular and widely accepted for movies. This format is compatible with both Mac/Macintosh and Windows including some other portable devices. The files that are encoded using this codec provide compressed data that has small size but the quality is not sacrificed at all. It just deletes or neglects the superfluous information that can not be noticed by the human ear. This lossy encoding takes less storage space to store data. Although this format is not efficient enough to provide excellent quality, yet, it is used most of the times due to its higher level of compatibility.
Technical description
The compressed ratio in digital video files under this format is 26:1 and for audio files it is 6:1.The bit rate in MPEG-1 is about 1.5 million bits per second and it is used to compress CD data., Besides this, MPEG-2 is designed especially for digital TV broadcast and DVD as it uses a bit rate above 4 million bits per second to compress both audios and videos. It should be noted that due to backwards compatibility with MPEG-1, video decoders have the ability to play a lower bit rate. It produces high quality of compressed files. Other uses of MPEG-2 is for Cable network, satellite and television stations; etc. Furthermore, it supports 5.1 multichannel audio.

Overview
It is an audio format which uses a lossless compression technique to compress the original data, without any loss of information. The additional benefit of this format is it maintains a very good quality of Audio. These files are encoded using FLAC algorithm that reduces the size of the primary file ranging from 50 to 80 per cent as the size varies according to the amount and density of the data. Therefore, this codec helps in the production of exact replicas of original data but in reduced size. It also supports a number of electronic devices. For instance- Portable players, car stereos etc. As well as it is streamable which allows users to jump to the middle of a stream with minimum delay.
Technical description
FLAC can deal with any channels from 1 to 8. It also supports PCM bit resolution up to 32 bits per sample and any sampling rate up to 655,350Hz in a single Hertz increment. REPLAYGAIN is an added feature in it which helps to measure and normalize the loudness of received audio. Moreover, it can deflate audio at very high speed which makes it to stand out from the other formats. Also, it is an open-source software which means original source code is freely available and it may be modified as per user’s requirements. Lastly, it has flexibility in metadata that allows one to write its own application when it is registered ID. Its metadata includes tags, cover art, seek tables and cue sheets.
