    About AU

    AU is an older audio format from Sun/Unix computers. You’d mainly use it when working with legacy systems or when you need to keep the original, uncompressed sound from those environments.

    • Best for legacy or Unix use: a good choice only if a specific older program or Unix machine requires .au files.
    • Original sound quality: stores audio without compression, so quality stays the same, but file sizes are much larger than MP3.
    • Limited compatibility: many phones, browsers, and modern apps won’t play it; convert to MP3 or WAV for easy sharing.
    • Not for the web: no web playback support, so it’s not suitable for websites or streaming.
    • Easy to convert: most audio editors and converters can open .au and save to common formats like MP3, WAV, or FLAC.
    • When to choose: use AU for archiving or exchanging audio with older Unix setups; for everyday listening, pick MP3 or WAV instead.
