WMV vs WAV at a glance
WMV is Microsoft's proprietary video format for Windows Media Player — rarely supported outside Windows, and most modern devices and browsers can't play it at all. WAV is the lossless audio standard — uncompressed PCM audio, identical quality every time, but files are 10× larger than MP3.
