APE是目前比较流行的数字音乐文件格式之一。与MP3这类有损压缩方式不同,APE采用一种无损压缩音频技术,也就是说,同样的一首歌,如果你用从网上下载的MP3或其他音频格式的文件播放,其效果与原版CD音质相去甚远;但如果你播放的是由原版CD转换而来的APE格式文件,那么音质与原版CD没有两样。因此,APE成为不少朋友私下交流发烧音乐的首选。 APE is currently one of the more popular digital music file formats. Unlike lossy compression such as MP3, APE uses a lossless compressed audio technology, which means that if you play a file downloaded from the Internet in MP3 or other audio format, the effect is the same as the original CD The sound quality is a long way off; however, if you play an APE format file converted from the original CD, the audio quality is the same as the original CD. Therefore, APE became the first choice of many friends to exchange fever music privately.
