To be technically, audio formats that work with PowerPoint include .wav, .mp3., .wma, .midi, .aiff, and .au. These open-source music file types can be used on any program (if supported). YouTube Music uses AAC format, however, it's totally different from the regular AAC format we used daily - YouTube Music AAC tracks are encoded in encryption technique and can only be streamed on its own platform.
