Understanding 3g2 and avi file formats

3G2 is a multimedia container format developed for mobile phones, primarily used for storing video and audio streams. It is a variant of the 3GP format, optimized for CDMA-based devices. AVI (Audio Video Interleave), developed by Microsoft, is a widely supported multimedia container format for storing video and audio data on Windows and other platforms.

Why convert 3g2 to avi?
