Convert OGG to WEM

Understanding OGG and WEM file formats

The OGG file format is a free, open container format maintained by the Xiph.Org Foundation. It is commonly used for storing audio data and is known for its efficient streaming and high-quality sound. OGG files often contain audio compressed with the Vorbis codec, making them a popular choice for music and other audio applications.

The WEM file format, on the other hand, is associated with the Wwise audio engine developed by Audiokinetic. WEM files are used primarily in video games and interactive media to store audio data. They are optimized for performance and integration within game environments, making them a preferred choice for game developers.
