IMPLEMENTATION

Viewers responsible for this format

M4A commonly identifies an audio-only MPEG-4 container rather than a raw AAC stream. Anyfile checks that there is no main video program and plays the verified AAC-LC audio path in the browser.

Common question

Is M4A the same as AAC?

M4A is usually a container holding AAC audio; a .aac file commonly uses raw ADTS framing instead.
