In Postgres, its all just binary data.  It's entirely up to you which 
particular format you use. mp2, mp3 mp4, wmv, avi, whatever, it's all the same 
to Postgres.

A better question is: Should you store the binary data in Postgres itself, or keep it in 
files and only store the filenames?  The Postgres archives have several discussions of 
this topic, and the answer is, "it depends."
