Why not Opus.
2 comments

There are many reasons, and as a user of Opus you are probably aware of the trade offs?
Haven't tracked trade offs recently, but I always use Opus when I save audio from Youtube since it's the best codec option there.
Wait what, what situation is opus worse than m4a? In my ABXing it's never lost to another lossy format.
My personal ecosystem is built around Apple-native formats.
