"Just for fun" I exported a sound file as WAV, AIFF and MP3 using Audacity"

WAV 36.9 MB

AIFF  36.9 MB

MP3  4.4 MB

which means that WAV and AIFF stink about 9 times more than MP3

For the record, mp3 is a lossy format while WAV and AIFF are lossless. And your file size will depend on the bitness of the compaction.


NWO: as Audacity is Open Source: https://www.audacityteam.org/

and can import, read and export sound files in MP3 format . . .

The mp3 format used to be "protected" by patent licensing but was set free a few years ago, so is now available for general use.
