MP4是一種商品,它是利用改進後的MPEG-2 AAC技術對音頻進行壓縮處理,並加上由出版公司直接授權的知識產權協議後形成一個全新形式的數字音樂標準。
  MP4技術的優越性要遠遠勝過MP3,因為它更適合多媒體技術的發展以及視聽欣賞的需求,它的特別之處是利用改進後的MPEG-2 AAC技術並加上由出版公司直接授權的知識產權協議作為新的標準。MP4在加密和授權方面做了特別設計,它有如下特點:

  (1)每首MP4樂曲就是一個擴展名為exe的可執行文件,其內嵌播放器,操作簡便,在Windows裡直接雙擊就可以運行播放,十分方便;

  (2)由於採用先進的A2B音頻壓縮技術,使MP4文件的大小僅為MP3的四分之三左右,更好的音質,更大的壓縮比,從這個角度來看MP4更適合在Internet上傳播,而且音質也更勝一籌;

  (3)獨特的數字水印,MP4採用了名為「SOLANA」的數字水印技術,可方便的追蹤和發現盜版行為,而且,任何針對MP4的非法解壓行為都可能導致MP4原文件的損毀;

  (4)支持版權保護,MP4樂曲內置了包括與作品版權持有者相關的文字、圖像等版權說明,即可說明版權,又表示了對作曲家和演唱(奏)者的尊重;

  (5)較為完善的功能,MP4可獨立調節左右聲道的音量大小、內置的波形/分頻動態音頻顯示和音樂管理器可支持多種彩色圖像、網站鏈接及無限制的滾動顯示文本。

  雖然MP4有很多先進的優點,但在與MP3競爭的過程中究竟鹿死誰手還有待時間的檢驗。關鍵原因是MP3的使用沒有任何限制,這種特性在本來就沒有限制的網絡上得到充分體現。相反的是雖然AAC技術是公開絳窊s玀P4本身卻是受到嚴格的專利和使用許可證保護。毫無疑問這肯定使得MP4的應用範圍顯得非常狹窄。而且,現在網絡上應用了AAC技術的聲音格式、編碼器、播放器等由於最終文件格式的原因短時間內難以相互兼容,這使得MP4的推廣難度大大增加。

  MP4有其獨特的優越性,其壓縮技術優於MP3,音質好於MP3;從維護版權的角度看,得到出版界的歡迎。但是,MP3是目前最流行的一種音樂格式,已經佔據著大量的網絡資源,深受廣大音樂愛好者的喜愛。MP3使用簡單、靈活,甚至已經有了可以自由選擇MP3曲目的「隨身聽」產品。GMO MP4的推廣將會遇到很大的困難。尤其是和A2B壓縮技術相同的AAC格式、其編/解碼器、音樂已經在網絡上出現,更容易被大眾接受並獲得發展的可能會是AAC。

  看上去MP4似乎很好,不過旨在和無法無天、無版權的MP3一較高低,雖然受到很多尊重版權人士的歡迎,同時還要獲得全球社會的廣泛支持和擁護才能走出「叫好不叫座」的尷尬局面。MP4的前景可能正像一句古詩所描述的那樣:「路漫漫其修遠兮,吾將上下而求索」。

MP4= MPEG-4 is a standard used primarily to compress audio and visual (AV) digital data. Introduced in late 1998, it is the designation for a group of audio and video coding standards and related technology agreed upon by the ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) under the formal standard ISO/IEC 14496. The uses for the MPEG-4 standard are web (streaming media) and CD distribution, conversation (videophone), and broadcast television, all of which benefit from compressing the AV stream.

MPEG-4 absorbs many of the features of MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 and other related standards, adding new features such as (extended) VRML support for 3D rendering, object-oriented composite files (including audio, video and VRML objects), support for externally-specified Digital Rights Management and various types of interactivity. AAC (Advanced Audio Codec) was standardized as an adjunct to MPEG-2 (as Part 7) before MPEG-4 was issued.

MPEG-4 is still a developing standard and is divided into a number of parts. Unfortunately the companies promoting MPEG-4 compatibility do not always clearly state which "part" level compatibility. The key parts to be aware of are MPEG-4 part 2 (MPEG-4 SP/ASP, used by codecs such as DivX, Xvid, Nero Digital and 3ivx and by Quicktime 6) and MPEG-4 part 10 (MPEG-4 AVC/H.264, used by the x264 codec, by Nero Digital AVC, by Quicktime 7, and by next-gen DVD formats like HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc).

Most of the features included in MPEG-4 are left to individual developers to decide whether to implement them. This means that there are probably no complete implementations of the entire MPEG-4 set of standards. To deal with this, the standard includes the concept of "profiles" and "levels", allowing a specific set of capabilities to be defined in a manner appropriate for a subset of applications.
