Is AAC better than 320 MP3?
Thanks. I’ve done some comparisons and found that ~256kbps AAC was the same or better quality than 320kbps MP3. So if you want to reduce file size without sacrificing sound quality go for AAC. If you want even better sound quality with the same file size: 320kbps AAC.
Is 256 kbps AAC good quality?
A higher bit rate is better, so a 256 kbps MP3 or AAC file is better than a 128 kbps file. However, with lossless files, this isn’t true. If you’re ripping music to a lossy format, it’s good to choose the iTunes default of 256 kbps, unless you need to cram a lot of music onto your portable devices.

Is AAC a good codec?
Advanced audio coding (AAC) If you have an Android phone, you won’t necessarily benefit from AAC as its performance is unreliable: it’s a power-hungry codec, and our testing has shown that Android devices don’t handle it effectively. iPhone users will certainly benefit from its higher-resolution playback though.
Does Spotify use AAC?
Sound quality is usually better than Spotify’s, thanks to Apple Music using a 256kbps AAC bitrate, compared to the max 320kbps Ogg Vorbis bitrate used by Spotify. The iOS, Android, and desktop apps are my least favorite user music streaming interfaces.
Is aptX better than SBC?
Since aptX HD was engineered with audio quality in mind, it is able to get much closer to uncompressed sound when compared to SBC. So, in short, aptX has a better sound quality, but only when the product uses aptX HD.
