What is ADTS?
ADTS stands for Audio Data Transport Stream. ADTS is a container for AAC encoded audio. It consists of a series of frames, each frame having a header followed by the AAC audio data. The formats are defined in MPEG-2 Part 7, but are only considered informative by MPEG-4.

AAC compressed audio data may be stored in either an MPEG-4 container file format (.mp4, .m4a) or more basic MPEG-2 based file formats such as a ADTS (.aac, .adts) Audio Data Transport Stream file.

An MPEG-4 file contains a header that includes meta-data followed by "tracks" which can include video as well as audio data, for example, H.264 encoded Video and AAC encoded Audio.

ADTS in contrast is a streaming format consisting of a series of frames, each frame having a header followed by the AAC data.

Therefore, a decoder can start playing a ADTS stream at any point within that stream making it ideal for "radio" like applications. To decode an MPEG-4 file however, the file header must first be read in order to properly playback the file.

What is ASF?
Advanced Systems Format (formerly Advanced Streaming Format, Active Streaming Format) is Microsoft's proprietary digital audio/digital video container format, especially meant for streaming media. ASF is part of the Windows Media framework.

ASF is based on serialized objects which are essentially byte sequences identified by a GUID marker.

The format does not specify how (i.e. with which codec) the video or audio should be encoded; it just specifies the structure of the video/audio stream. This is similar to the function performed by the QuickTime, AVI, or Ogg container formats. One of the objectives of ASF was to support playback from digital media servers, HTTP servers, and local storage devices such as hard disk drives.

The most common filetypes contained within an ASF file are Windows Media Audio (WMA) and Windows Media Video (WMV). Note that the file extension abbreviations are different from the codecs which have the same name. Files containing only WMA audio can be named using a .WMA extension, and files of audio and video content may have the extension .WMV. Both may use the .ASF extension if desired.

ASF files can also contain objects representing metadata, such as the artist, title, album and genre for an audio track, or the director of a video track, much like the ID3 tags of MP3 files. It supports scalable media types and stream prioritization; as such, it is a format optimized for streaming.

The ASF container provides the framework for digital rights management in Windows Media Audio and Windows Media Video. An analysis of an older scheme used in WMA reveals that it is using a combination of elliptic curve cryptography key exchange, DES block cipher, a custom block cipher, RC4 stream cipher and the SHA-1 hashing function.

ASF container-based media is usually streamed on the internet either through the MMS protocol or the RTSP protocol.
