Some well known formats:
.it — Impulse Tracker
.xm — FastTracker 2
.s3m — Scream Tracker
.mod — Sound-/Pro-/Noisetracker
.mid — SMF
.med — OctaMED
These were extremely common on some systems before CD-audio (and possibly after), when sufficient storage space for plain wave data or fast systems where run-time decompression of things like MP3 or OGG was not feasible. Amiga being the prime example as much of the MOD community started out from there. Therefore, should only be used on systems where it isn't as common (Windows, Linux, Mac, etc.).
