Frequently Asked Questions
Why use OGG instead of MP3 for games?
OGG Vorbis is open-source and patent-free, which means no licensing fees for game distribution. At equivalent bitrates, Vorbis also often sounds better than MP3, which matters when packaging many sound effects at low bitrates.
How does OGG file size compare to WAV?
OGG typically produces files 8–12× smaller than WAV at quality settings appropriate for games (VBR quality 5, roughly 160 kbps average). A 10 MB WAV might become a 1 MB OGG.
