An AudioBook club I belong to allows me to choose the format I download my purchased audiobooks in. My options are MP3 & MB4.
I generally download them to my laptop (running Windows 10), so I have a back up copy, then copy the file onto my tablet for listening. My tablet is a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4.
I've always downloaded MP3 formats, because I was under the impression that MP3 was best for universal listening devices, including Android, whereas MB4 is primarily for Apple/Mac devices.
That said, I've noticed some of the MP3 files I download from this club have subpar audio- and it's not related to the tablet, as other things play fine. I recently read somewhere that mb4 formats are higher quality- is my understanding of them incorrect? Should I be using the Mb4 formats, or are they only compatible with Apple and Mac?
TIA
