Commonness
On Catagolue, it is the fifth most common period 8 oscillator, being slightly less common than smiley but more common than blocker on cis-dock.[3] It first occurred naturally on August 21, 2015, in a soup submitted to Catagolue by Tanner Jacobi.[4]
gollark: Who are you asking?
gollark: But if I just make that into WAV, it won't contain any data the M4A one doesn't, it'll just be less efficiently encoded.
gollark: I mean, if you have a WAV *source* file, yes.
gollark: Inaccurate.
gollark: If you play that M4A file, which contains AAC audio (the exact same as in the video), your computer will be converting it into "raw" PCM audio internally, which is what I would be doing to make a WAV file.
