It provides excellent sound quality but takes up a lot of disk space- about 34 MB per minute for 24- bit 96 KHz stereo
Uncompressed Audio File Format
34
PCM Pulse- Code, WAV Waveform audio file
Uncompressed Audion File Format
35
is a method that reduces file size without losing the qualilty between the original and the resulting file.
