Raw audio is uncompressed pulse-code modulation (PCM) sound stored with no header at all — just a continuous stream of sample values. Because the file carries no description of itself, the sample rate, bit depth, channel count, and byte order have to be supplied by whoever opens it. That makes raw audio awkward to share but very useful in audio programming, embedded devices, and recovery work, where a plain stream of samples is exactly what is needed.
The standard tool is Audacity. Use File → Import → Raw Data, then set the encoding, sample rate, and channels to match the file.
If you do not know the correct settings, start with 16-bit signed PCM, 44,100 Hz, stereo, and adjust until the audio sounds normal — wrong settings usually produce noise or a chipmunk-like pitch. Command-line users can play or convert raw audio with FFmpeg or SoX. Converting to a self-describing format such as WAV or MP3 saves you from repeating the guesswork. You can also convert the file with our RAW to WAV tool.

iPod Audio is an M4A file encoded for Apple iPod players, using AAC audio in an MPEG-4 container. This is the format the iTunes Store sold music in for years, chosen because AAC gives better sound than MP3 at the same file size — a real advantage on a device with limited storage. Track titles, artist names, and album artwork are all carried inside the file.
Add the file to your library in iTunes or the Apple Music app, then sync the iPod. It appears in the device’s music library ready to play.
On a computer the same M4A plays in iTunes, VLC media player, Windows Media Player, and foobar2000. Very early iPod models and most non-Apple players expect MP3 instead, so convert the file with our M4A to MP3 tool if it will not appear on the device.
