MOD at a glance
MOD
Convert to MOD when preserving original consumer camcorder captures or when a legacy ingest workflow still expects the camera-native container.
More commonly, it serves as a source format during home-video digitization and migration into MP4, MOV, or editing-friendly mezzanine files.
AIFF at a glance
AIFF
Convert to AIFF when the recipient needs high-fidelity editable audio for production, mastering, archiving, or sample-based workflows, especially in Apple-heavy or studio environments.
It is a strong target when preserving PCM quality matters more than storage size.
For lightweight delivery, AAC or MP3 are usually better suited.
