Part 2. 256kbps AAC VS 320kbps OGG

As the two best music streaming services, AAC of Apple Music and OGG of Spotify, are often taken to some comparison. So, what are the differences between them?

A. Quality

Actually, AAC format would be much closer to lossless, instead, OGG would be slightly less. Although the bitrate of OGG is higher, and as we all know, with a higher bitrate, there comes better quality, this could be offset by the format itself. In reality, the quality of both formats is good enough for us at present.

B. File Size

We can know that, with a higher bitrate, the size of the file would also be larger. But in fact, the size of 320kbps OGG only occupies 1146KB, while 256kbps AAC takes 1185kbps. As a result, when your mobile phone or laptop has a limited storage, OGG could be a pretty good choice to save some space.

Part 3. Suggestion: Choose The Adaptable One for Yourself

Actually, both 256kbps AAC of Apple Music and 320kbps OGG of Spotify have been a very good quality, and few people could really tell the differences when they are listening to music. As a result, it would be better to choose the one which is more adaptable to themselves.

According to the devices

If you are using an iPhone, or any other Apple electronic products, the Apple Music could be a well choice. The 256kbps AAC format can not only save your space but also help you enjoy a wonderful sound quality. However, if you need to transfer the music between two different devices frequently, or your devices are the brands which don't support AAC, an OGG format is your choice. As we know, it is compatible with lots of devices.

According to personal needs

People may need the music with 320kbps in some cases. For example, a comment on a forum says that he/she needs the 320kbps music because he/she is a DJ and is going to play it in clubs. In this case, Apple Music is not a good choice because it only has the maximum of 256kbps and he/she has to choose Google music or Spotify. Besides, you can also try the conversion method mentioned in the front of the passage to turn Apple Music into a 320kbps one. It would be a better choice for its convenience.
