Why every browser support different type sound file ???

Question

is it possible to link just a audio file which support almost every browser??

Answer 1

The problem is not support, but codecs. For licensing reasons, some operating systems can not include some codecs, and it is up to the user to install them.

Most devices offer default support for OGG, but their compatibility between browsers is not the same.

On the other hand, MP3 has a much wider support among browsers, but it does not come natively in all operating systems (a good example is that some Linux distributions do not include them by default):

Other alternatives can be MP4 and AAC, but being proprietary formats support may be limited in some platforms
