Check this easy guide for converting songs from YouTube Music to WAV format.
Part 1. What’s the Difference Between WAV and MP3?
WAV, short for Waveform Audio File Format, is mainly used on Windows computers. WAV files are uncompressed and lossless, maintaining all the original audio data and the highest possible sound quality. Because of their uncompressed nature, WAV files are significantly larger than other audio formats.
In contrast, the MP3 format focuses on lossy compression, which reduces file size by sacrificing audio quality. The compactness of MP3 files makes them easier to store, share, and download. Therefore, MP3 audio is universally supported by all devices and platforms.
Generally speaking, lossless WAV audio is prepared for audiophiles and audio editors. There is no need to decompress before editing, and no quality is lost during the process. Whereas the MP3 format is ideal for users who want to listen to songs on different portable devices. To download YouTube Music songs as lossless WAV files, AudiCable YouTube Music Converter is what you need.
