What happens when converting WAV to OGG?
The WAV data is decoded inside your browser with WebAssembly and re-encoded to the OGG specification, so no file is ever uploaded to a server. OGG can encode losslessly, so this conversion adds no further quality degradation to data that is already compressed.
