What is a WEBA file?
WEBA is an audio-only WebM file, usually with Opus sound. Browsers and some web recorders and download tools save audio this way.
WEBA is mainly used for browser recordings and web audio. It plays on Chrome, Firefox, Edge and VLC; most phones and music apps do not recognise .weba.
