MPEG-1 Audio Layer 1 (MP1) is an earlier, simpler version of the MPEG audio standard. MP1 is mostly obsolete, but still supported. MP1 was part of the Digital Compact Cassette format. Almost all files that were MP1 were replaced by the newer MPEG-1 Audio Layer II (MP2) and MPEG-1 Audio Layer III or MPEG-2 Audio Layer III (MP3) file formats.
Due to MP1 being largely obsolete, VLC media player is the best option for opening an MP1 file, with the bonus that this player works across platforms.
Other great media players for opening MP1 include Windows Media Player, Awave Studio, Winamp, and jetAudio.

Apple Lossless Audio Codec (ALAC) is Apple’s lossless audio format, stored inside an M4A container. It compresses a recording to roughly half its original size while preserving every sample, so decoding returns audio identical to the source CD or WAV. ALAC is the natural choice for lossless libraries in the Apple ecosystem, and Apple released it as open-source in 2011, which broadened support well beyond its own devices.
On Apple devices, ALAC plays directly in the Music app, iTunes, or QuickTime with no setup at all.
Elsewhere, VLC media player, foobar2000, and Android all read ALAC. Since ALAC files carry the .m4a extension, they look identical to lossy AAC files in a file listing — check the track properties to tell them apart. To free up space or play the music on limited hardware, convert it with our M4A to MP3 tool.
