About OGV to ALAC Conversion
OGV files store Vorbis audio (a lossy open-source codec) within the Ogg video container. ALAC (Apple Lossless Audio Codec) is Apple's lossless compression format that reduces PCM audio to about 50-60% of original size with zero data loss. Open-sourced by Apple in 2011, ALAC plays natively on every Apple device and integrates seamlessly with Apple Music, iTunes, and Apple's professional audio tools.
Why Convert OGV to ALAC?
Extracting OGV audio to ALAC creates a lossless archival copy of the decoded Vorbis audio that integrates perfectly with the Apple ecosystem. While the source is lossy (Vorbis), storing the decoded output as ALAC prevents any further quality degradation during future format conversions or editing.
ALAC is also the best format for importing into Apple Music with the Lossless quality badge, making it ideal for building a music library from OGV video sources.
