What is MP3?
MP3 is the most popular audio format in the world. It uses lossy compression to shrink music and recordings to a fraction of their original size while keeping good sound quality, and it plays on virtually every device ever made.
What is OGG?
OGG (Vorbis) is a free, open audio format with no licensing restrictions. It offers quality comparable to or better than MP3 at the same size and is popular in games, open-source software and web audio.

Why convert MP3 to OGG?
The usual reason to turn MP3 into OGG is compatibility: OGG is the right fit for games and web audio and open-source projects.
What OGG gives you: free and open, no licensing, good quality for the size and supported by modern browsers.
Where MP3 falls short: lossy — some quality is discarded, not ideal for editing or mastering and no lossless option. Converting keeps your content while moving to a format that matches where the file is going.
