Of course not. RIFF, CAF, and whatever, follow the same EAV/TLV formula

That is very much true where it goes to ambisonic and the existing

In order the two most common ones are (I think):

Ok. staying with the 'provocative' though true idea.
I see your 'challenge', but see nothing in your post to contradict my

Now if Mac OS is a belief system for you, IE knowin
about the 4 channels: they are 4 channels of audio to be played back by a quad

release is a quad version of the piece.
as I mentioned I cannot consider wav/aiff and other lossless options because of
their size.

In terms of installed base of players, AC3 and DTS are the most common
formats for delivery of surround audio. VLC player can decode either
one

IMO if one wants to store so called linear PCM, use WAV. All other
formats offer less & only exist for (a) backward compatibility for
which I have no problem or (b) to screw the customer, which I find
obnoxious.
AIFF, AIFC

Four channel works are not common.
Therefore, there are no common file formats
for on-line delivery.

I dont know why FLAC and MP3 are mentioned in the same
